I have written about lessons from children in the past but for some reason I never thought I could have learned a lesson from a newborn...or better yet God could use a newborn to teach me such a valuable lesson! But then again God can do all things...right?! For nothing is impossible with God...but that's another lesson for another day! Back to my newborn...this seven week old baby lying in my arms eating right now in a camper at 4:38 in the morning while its storming outside..oh how that could be another lesson of its own. I love how God uses what we feel like is so random. God is using this little, helpless infant to bring me closer to Him! Ooh how I love this child! Tonight or rather this morning as I was feeding this helpless baby I related him to myself with God. I was brought back to something I heard on klove awhile back. I thought about how this little baby sometimes wants all of my attention...like yesterday when I was packing and he was in his swing crying wanting my attention... he didn't want me to just talk to him and rub his little head every now and then. He wanted all of me just like God wants all of me. He doesn't want me just partially calling out to him while I'm busy doing other things. Yes he wants my attention then too, but he wants all of me at times also without phone calls, texts, my baby, etc. As I sit here thinking about my helpless infant, fully relying on me...that's how God wants us to be with Him. He wants us to fully rely on Him...not just times of need but always! We should be like this helpless infant crying out to our lord and savior all day every day...relying on Him every step we take...like that song...!
