Quality of His Love

This was Asher's FIRST attempt at making his bed ALL by himself....

These are the moments that could begin to produce fear, when your three year old suddenly realizes there are THINGS they can "do" apart from you that seem bigger than themselves...
....

I'm sure ONE day he will look at this picture and think...I definitely "accomplished" that by myself, but the quality was so different from when my mom and dad helped in the process...

I love looking at the picture of this messy bed and pondering all the truths....that at some point we all need to grow up and make our beds no matter how messy or unfinished it appears. Not stopping there, we need to find ways to sustain that work....and the only way to sustain THAT type of work is to rely on the ONE who shows and reveals every good thing we need for accomplishing and sustaining the DAILY work....whether its making the bed or growing in Christlikeness.

Thankful for our eager three year old who will at least TRY....and thankful when he realizes he could still use his Mommy's help!

Thankful I am in a daily abd obgoing relationship with the ONE true God who demonstrated how faithful He is when He begins a good work...He walks alongside until it is not only finished but also weighted by the quality of His love for us.
