I am a recycler. Anything God teaches me has never been wasted it has always been recycled for God's glory.

28 SEPTEMBER SPEAKING ENGAGEMENT
Thursday, September 13, 2018
LOOK! LOOK! LOOK AT THAT...
Look there...and there...look, look, look...she jumps up and down anxiously, kind of like she has to go to the bathroom, grabs her daddy's face moving it each way as she wants him to see what she is seeing. She asks, "Can you see it!" Picture the dad either kneeling down looking fully into her sparkling eyes or just waving saying, "Yah, Yah"! Her eight year old eyes are satisfied or disappointed.
As I sat in my backyard I saw the different shades of green, birds, sounds and was like "Daddy you created that and that and all...for me to see. Wow! I was inspired to draw sparrows from the scripture, "Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father's care (Matthew 10:29 NIV)." Beloved you are valued. Your value may be diminished by negative feedback from your roles as a co-worker, spouse, friend, grandparent, and relative. We can not rely on those roles to define us to validate your longings for approval. Only God can STAMP your heart with that kind of love.
Rest my friend. Is this part of what Jesus meant, when He said, "Let the little children come to me"! He knew they appreciated the little. He knew their pure hearts lead us to remember. To be in the moment. To sit and be still. How did we loose that wonderment? Wonder of the gifts of the day. A butterfly that swoops by you, a bubble with a rainbow shown through it, a thank you from a person who you open the door for. All are gifts of love from the Father. Be in awe of a song that redirects your negative thoughts.
A prayer:
Father give me the ability to see what you see. Amen.
