Bask in the Glow

Another entry from the past:



As I watched Kenton play this morning, I realized something precious. Kenton gently tapped Ray and patiently waited for him to wake up. Then Ray started playing with him lavishing lots of attention on him. Kenton started running and dancing around very enthusiastically. I told Ray, "he's basking in the glow of his father's presence."

As I said those words, I thought "how true that is of each of us in our walk with the Lord." the times when we face hardships and challenges and it seems God is not there or too busy for us are difficult and lonely (Ray has been working long hours and not around a lot during the week). However, the times when we feel God close to us and sense his presence with us, these are special and beautiful times. We often express that joy through praise to our Father.

I will cherish this story in my heart, what a precious picture it is.
