As I watched Josh get into his car, for turkey hunting, this morning, I found myself with an overwhelming emotion of pride and love for him. Ive been so very honored to watch him become the man he is, and to realize hes on the journey to discovery and finding his place in this world. As I stood there, watching him drive off into the dark, I prayed for Gods guidance and protection for him. It was at that moment that I was reminded of the depth of love that God holds for his children. There are no words to describe the emotion that we call love. No effort to describe it would be successful. To imagine that God can love me much deeper than that is beyond comprehension. Just as my love for Josh, Rebecca, and Robert, will surpass any fault they have, or any aggravation they bring, so, too, does Gods love for me look beyond any fault I think is great. There were those times---especially in the last few years--- when I was pushed to great extremes by all three kids.......but, my love was unyielding. Despite the hurt involved, my love was steadfast. How often we must wound Gods heart with our foolishness, yet He continues to love us. I never, truly, understood Grace until I had the honor of raising three kids. I always figured God stayed angry at mankind through the years, but I understand that although we anger him, his mercy, love, and grace are much more powerful than any anger. What an awesome Heavenly Father we have. Im nearly brought to tears as I think about my love for the kids, then think about His love for me. How awesome it is to know Im loved that deeply!
