Thoughts on Today's Verse...

I still remember when my children were little. I would sneak in and watch them sleep. Sometimes, it was to check on them when they were sick. Sometimes, it was to sit and pray for them, joining the Lord as he watched over them while they slept. Sometimes, it was to bathe myself in the grace and wonder of God's love for such blessings. Even now that they are much older, I still love to be around them and pray for them when I visit them in their homes. I still marvel at the wonder of these precious gifts from the Father to Donna and me. To know that my Abba Father in heaven looks at me in the same adoring way, that he will not let my foot slip, and will not slumber as he watches over me with delight and joy, ah, that fills me with unspeakable wonder. Our Abba will not let our feet slip! Our Abba will not slumber.

My Prayer...

Now I lay me down to sleep,
And pray you Lord my soul to keep,
Safely in your loving care
Confident you're always there.
Thank you for your grace and love,
And for Jesus now above.
I share with him my every care,
Confident, he's always there.
In Jesus' name, I humbly pray,
To awaken with you to a brand new day.
Amen.
