I hang out with a lot of preschoolers these days and I love it! I love their unending joy and zeal for life – and dinosaurs – and baby dolls – and snack! Their impulsivity, however, often results in their caregivers reminding them to slow and down and use their words. Don’t grab or whine or pout or fuss….use your words.
It doesn’t take me long to transfer this experience to my relationship with God. I love the blessing of being able to use my words with the Creator and King and Lord and Master of the Universe! I love slowing down and praying Scripture, sharing my heart and singing praise to Him! But….when I’m tired and weary my cry out to God for help or wisdom is not eloquent. I sound like a preschooler. And that’s OK! God, our Heavenly Father, our Abba Daddy is ready and waiting to hear our cry – whatever it sounds like!
Grab your blankie and cuddle up – share your heart with our Ever Listening Lord!
