That simple word momma. In the early morning when your babe wants to play. In the midst of a fit when she wants your attention. That sweet word momma. Nothing, truly nothing sounds better than hearing your little one say momma.
I was rocking my sweet babe to sleep when she had just been throwing a fit. In the still silence she looked up and said momma. It's at the moment that hit me how our father must feel when we call on him. When we cry abba. Or pray lord Jesus. When we are thanking him for a blessing he has poured into our lives. When we are mad and crying out to him. Our father loves us so dearly. We love our children so dearly.
It's through Elcie I see Jesus so much deeper. It's through her I see gods grace and forgiveness.
It's helped to put into perspective how much Elcie needs me, and she knows she needs me. This to is the need I have for Jesus. I think I can do things my way, but I cannot. Jesus knows my path I need to take and he will guide me as long as I seek him first.
Friends we need Jesus. We needed him when we were little and we need him now even more.
Are you crying out to Jesus like a baby cries out for her momma?
“This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.”
1 John 4:9
