He loves me! (2/04/09)

I haven't blogged much lately. I haven't been completely alone very much lately. :)

But today.....well, let me tell you about today.

(and I hesitated at first because I think that some that may read this don't know God's love..yet. but if I didn't share this with you, then I would not be being obediant, so here goes)

I took my kids to school this morning. They've been on snow days since Tuesday and they had 3 of them last week. So I'd taken them to school, stopped to get more cording for Parachutes for Columbia (that's another blog soon) and was headed down the highway.

All the sudden I realized I was by myself, all by myself! I realized how much I had loved having my kids with me the past 2 weeks and now I really missed them being back at school. Then, for lack of better words, I just felt the inside of my vehicle flood with this peaceful warmth. I knew the Holy Spirit was speaking to me. And He said, "You love them, but I love them even more." If that wasn't enough....then He said, "And I love you even more than you love them." WOAH Ok, that's a lotta love, because you're talkin' about the momma/child love here. And He said He loves me more than that?! Folks, the tears just starting flowing. I could not have held them back if I'd tried. It was such an overwhelming loved kind of tears. I LOVE my kids. But God just told me that He loved me even more than I loved my own children. The awkward part of this was that I was headed to the library to pick up some tax forms. And when I have had a flow of tears, I'm not a pretty post-crier. Thank goodness that my transitions lenses darkened as I walked from the van to the library door! ;)So....I've got something I want to tell you. God loves you more than absolutely any kind of love that your mind can come up with. Think of someone or something you love.......got it?........well, God loves you more!! :)


May you feel the indescribable, overwhelming love of God this week!
