Yesterday,
while standing in line at a checkout counter,
I noticed a precious three year old girl,
who has periodically participated in children's programs at church,
waiting in the next line over.
As she twirled around on one foot,
she caught a glimpse of me.
Instantly,
her face lit up,
and before I could wave
or even say "hi",
she came running to me,
wrapping her arms around my legs.
It was in this moment I saw a Heartprint of God.
How it must please the ♥ of our Heavenly Father when,
twirling around,
through the ordinary, every day events of our life,
we catch a glimpse of Him,
and instantly run into His presence~

What a sweet gift for you and how He called you closer to Him through this little girl.
ReplyDeletevery sweet!!
ReplyDeleteHaving a childlike spirit is such a blessing!! It's too bad that along with wisdom and experience, most people take on a cautious and distant persona. We have so much to learn from the loving acceptance that a child shows to others.

We can learn so much for children...child-like faith is like running to God with no expectations just like the child hugged your legs.
