Today my children humbled me once again...
Each came to the door with a large smile radiating their faces. I asked them what they were up to and they both, in a sing song manner, voiced "I love you, mommy"! From behind their backs came their grubby little hands, grasping all the marigolds, grass blooms, and tree blooms they could hold. My heart melted at the purity of their gesture. I immediately took their sweet offering and filled a vase with the assortment of "spring" blooms. Never have I beheld such a beautiful bouquet! The joy in their faces as I accepted their gift actually brought tears surging to my eyes. This precious moment in my day made everything right in the world.
Do you suppose the joy reflected in their pure faces is a glimpse of how God looks when we accept His gift of grace?
