Sitting in the Father's lap
Someone told me I should try to keep up on updating my blog- i have to admit this is a weak point of mine-blogging that is. Tonight Ill keep it short. I find myself in a place searching and yet often times missing Christ. He desires to express His love for us in a personal way, but i skirm like a little kid trying to get out of dad's hug. God is the full expression of love. He is the perfect dad and doesnt force anything on us but loves it when we choose to be with Him. This life on earth can be so dreary and oppressing without Jesus' forgiveness and blood covering. Thank God I am called his child.In Max Lucado's book he quotes 2 Thes 3:5 "May the Lord lead your hearts into God's love and Christ's patience."
It's short but sweet I think. Watching tv with my mom tonight made me feel spiritually and physically sick. I can see how ugly sin truly is, and how refreshing the Lord's love is. God the Father looks at me as perfect and acceptable because Jesus loved me on the cross. Even when i completely mess up he is ready to forgive and let me sit in his lap again. Sometimes I even try to figure out my problems or questions about the future...it is the most frustrating place to be. But when i give up trying and sit before my Father he leads me into his love and makes my path straight. Am I satisfied in His presence and love?
