As I was getting ready for bed last night, Reid and I were talking over the screams of Aiden over the monitor about how this is a life lesson for all of us! Doesn't God take away things from us a little at time sometimes? We think that we need whatever it is, but doesn't God know better and even though we fuss and scream when we look back it is always for the best in our life! Just like Aiden will no longer crave the security of his paci, after a time we also will no longer crave whatever God took from us. I have never been good at making and keeping New Year's resolutions, but I do try every year to try something different in my life...which is usually read my bible more and spend more time with the Lord! This year I am discovering what things in my life God has been trying to take away that I have been holding tightly to and my prayer is that I allow him to remove them from my life...no matter how much I scream and fuss!!! What things in your life does God want to show you that need to be removed???
Even though I want to scream and fuss about what God is showing me...I know that once removed I will find my security with the Lord! There truly is no place like home in His presence!
