Things I want Daye to know

It's been a sweet reminder to me that as I speak the Truth over Daye, God is also speaking it to me . . . 
I pray she hears His Love for her, believes it, receives it and chooses to walk in it.


. . . and I now have a greater understanding that this is His Desire for me too. 


So thankful


Here are some simple (and may seem silly) things we sing or read throughout the day that I have begun to realize have a magnitude of meaning:


1. "Jesus loves me . . . the Bible tells me so." 
(John 15: 9-17)

2. "I guess it's better to be who you are. Turns out people like you best that way, anyway." 
(Matthew 5:13)

3. "God loves you as much as pancakes are fluffy and maple syrup is sticky sweet and butter is golden and melty." 
(Colossians 3:12)


4. ". . . down came the rain . . . out came the sun" 
(John 16:33) 

5. "He's got the whole world in His Hands" 
(Isaiah 40; Romans 8:31)


6. "Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world." 
(1 John 3:1-2)

7. ". . . what if I were a super smelly skunk, and I smelled so bad that my name was stinky face?" 
"Then I would give you a bath and sprinkle you with sweet-smelling powder. And if you still smelled bad, I wouldn't mind, and I would hug you tight and whisper in your ear, 'I love you Stinky Face."
(Ephesians 1: 5-7)

8. "Yes, from head to toe tip, you're truly original, a creation-in-progress, a distinct individual. Look the world over, and you'll never find a duplicate of you-ness that's your one-of-a-kind."
(Psalm 139: 13-16)

9. I love you right up to the moon - and back." 
(Romans 8:38-39)
