Last night I had one of those moments, a moment when God speaks to you through another person. This time it happened to be that God Spoke to me through my son Lucas.
I came home from a meeting and it was late so the boys were already in bed, while I was talking with Andrea, I heard Lucas stirring. Kind of whimpering and just on the verge of crying out loud. So I went in and did the Dad thing, held him. He took care of some business and then I put him back in bed.
I took one of the wonderful opportunities that a dad has to cuddle with his children. I laid him on my chest and it was wonderful feeling his tiny little body on mine as he got comfortable again and was ready to go back to sleep.
What I realized there as Lucas rolled to his bed and got situated is that my Heavenly father desires to be in that same situation with me - he wants to cuddle - he wants to comfort me as I get back to my sleep - he wants to hold me tight as I drift off in to rest - he wants to whisper in my ear, tell me he loves me and that all things are going to be alright - because he is there.
I love those moments - God, Thank you for loving me the way that you do and showing it to me through my children. I know that you are faithful.
