Spiritual Lessons from a Mother's Eyes

I have always heard that you learn a lot about God and about His love for us through having children. It is so true! I will catch myself, at times, thinking about how incredibly much I love my sweet Ty or how I would do anything to protect him. What a parallel between my feelings for my child and God's love toward His own!

Today, or maybe it was yesterday, I was playing with Ty and watching him smile. His little face lit up and he smiled so big (that precious smile always melts my heart!) I started thinking about how much I delight in him, how that sweet baby brings so much joy and happiness to my life. And then I thought of Zephaniah 3:17, "...He will take great delight in you...He will rejoice over you with singing." I think I finally understand that verse.

How could you not delight in this little thing??? :)
