Sick babies are hard… Kira and I were
getting to the point where we thought we had this parenting thing figured
out. We were able to put our toddler in his crib
and he would sleep great. He was
following directions, eating his dinner, and smashing dirt into his hair. (Ok, so
he’s not perfect, but he was doing pretty good for a one year old!)
Anyway, things started to fall apart
last week. His nose became congested, he
couldn’t breathe very well, and he ran a low fever.
It was hard to watch him go through such a miserable experience. Instead of seeing his happy and energetic personality, he just cried for help. The only thing he wanted to do was hold on to us and feel loved...
As we get older, we can learn how to
deal with pain, and we can actually put up with quite a bit. However, sometimes our trials can get the best of us. When the world falls apart, the only thing we
can do is trust in a greater love.
Today, I hope that you can trust in that love. God has called you by name, and God believes in you. Let's let go of all things that tear us apart, and let's hold on to God's Love.
Peace!
PB
