A Kids Love and God's Love at Wednesday, October 21, 2009

I love hanging out with my kids. I knew that when I was going to be a parent there was this huge responsibility that is now put on me. The fear rose up in my heart because I knew that I was now responsible for raising my kids up to fear God.

My son is 2 and is going to be 3 in December of this year. I love watching him trying to figure things out. He has a tough outer skin, but deep down he is very sweet in his heart. When we get onto him he knows that he did wrong and usually he will straighten up. There is one thing that I do that I absolutely love to do.

Before I leave for work or before we put him down to bed I love to tell him. Dominic I love you and the response that I get from him is priceless and that is "I love you too daddy". It makes me feel so good when my son responds that he loves me too by calling me by my name. I can't help but think how much God loves it when we tell him that we love him and spend that time with him. I know how it makes me feel when I get to spend that time with my son, but when we spend time with our heavenly father in prayer and reading the word he loves that, but I think that his heart leaps when we tell him that we love him too or we thank him for his undying love for us.

Thank you Lord I love you... Take some time today and tell the Lord that you love him.
