Child Like Faith

A picture on a friends blog, missmalu30.blogspot.com (aka: heart prints), pulls at my heart and mind each time I visit it. It is a portrait of their two boys, the elder holding the younger, and the younger has a look of complete safety and contentment in his brother's arms.

After the moments of thinking, I wonder if they were threatened with no more of mommy's cookies for a month if they didn't pose well for pictures, and how amazing cute that is, were over came the parallels of that single moment captured til the end of time with our entire lives and relationship with our "friend Who sticks closer than a brother" Saviour.

For those of you who aren't able to adequately understand this, please start that needed relationship with Jesus Christ right now. To learn how and why this part is vitally important please click on the Way of the Master link at the bottom of this page or the "Are you a good person?" link to the right somewhere and let God draw you to Himself. YOU WILL NEVER REGRET IT, EVER!!

Back to the picture. We, as Christians, desperately need to get to or return to the point of such trust and contentment as is seen in this younger brother and just rest our heads, our lives on Jesus Christ. The same as the elder brother, Christ promises, I love you and "am with you always, even to the end of the age."

Your turn to think on this more.......

Wow, it was amazing that we even were able to get that picture; I'm still not sure how it happened. We had waited in the waiting room for probably close to an hour, so by the time we got in there to take pictures, Jaden was already a crank.:)LOL It was quite fun, but we got some good pictures. I seem to remember when Jacob was 2, though, and we took him to get pictures, and we had to bribe him with M&M's to get good pictures! And no, I don't bribe my kids normally, but hey, what are ya gonna do?:)LOLOLOL
