TREASURES

Through the lives of my nephews and nieces I have received more messages from the Lord than I can write down. My desperation for God is so much more than I could possibly confess. Somehow I think that children are our reminders, messages, and examples of instruction and mercy we have been given. Whether we decide to listen and learn is up to us. I treasure listening to their little voices, their words that are healing, and their consistenant request to "COME HERE," come over, come get me, or come home. Speaks clearly to me that if I will draw near to God and spend time with Him I will begin to see just how much He longs to be close to me. I want to show my nephews and nieces so much and tell them what's in my heart, but the only way that is going to happen is if they spend time with me, talk to me when I call, or read my letters when I write to them.

"IN HIS PRESENCE IS THE FULLNESS OF JOY AND PLEASURES FOREVER MORE."

When I am going for a walk and one of these precious treasures are holding my hand, or I have been gone barely five minutes and they still run to meet me as if I had been gone for months (and sometimes I am). When they give me a hug, or we are sitting in the dirt somewhere sharing our thoughts or maybe singing a song... such joy fills my heart for the true riches of the Kingdom of God are right in front of me. They are answers to my prayers, proof that "God remembers," He is a "Mighty Warrior." He has given us His "Field" and "God is the Lord" and we are His "Royal" children. (nephews and nieces name meanings are between the " ")

Matthew 18:3
"And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven."
