Today is one of those days that took my breath away and turns my heart inside out. Our grandson Daeus (pronouncec Day-us) was born today. Even though I know that life begins at conception, birth is reality in the flesh. Oh, the joy in my heart is a warmth wrapped up tight forever to love and to experience what true love is all about.....sacrifice....in all it's ways....for to love is to sacrifice. I think the biggest reality in understanding the depth of God's love for us, is when we look & see with our heart the eyes of our new born baby. ....Why did God make human kind? Because He loves us. Why did He come as a little baby? Next time you see a baby, feel His love for you and me. God is Love. With that assurance as a believer, we can know the peace that surpasses all understanding. Next time you look at a baby, remember the baby wrapped in swaddling clothing...lying in a manger. It will bring you the peace that comes from God. The reward far outweighs the pains of our lives. Any mother will tell you that the pain they experienced in childbirth is nothing compared to the joy the baby brings to their heart. And so it is with Christ. In the midst of pain, He is our peace.
"Let not your heart be troubled, take heart for I have overcome the world" John 6:33
