The love parents have for their children is a powerful & creative force. No matter if you are a biological, adoptive, step or god parent, there is something magical about the love parents have for their kids. It's the kind of love that grows to match the requirements of the day.
I think back to last week when I didn't even hesitate to catch my daughter's vomit in my hands . . . didn't even think twice. Just did it. Gross! Disgusting!!! I wouldn't do it for anyone but her. There are lots of things that we parents wouldn't do for anyone else. It's a testament to just how powerful a force love can be.
That love calls forth life itself. The love in my heart called out for my daughter's life. And that same love calls out for her every day . . . in words, snuggles, gifts, food and time together. It makes me wonder just how much God loves me. His love was enough that it called forth my life.

Amen, Amen and Amen to that. Nothing more can be added in trying to express the love that exist between parents and children. I am overwhelmed by the realization that God loves us even more! Just imagine that. Thank you for reminding us of this awesome and powerful gift, that is called LOVE!
