He Carries Me!

Dec 23, 2008

The other morning I was spending some time with Charisse and we were walking around the Christmas tree looking at ornaments.

When all of a sudden I reached out and picked her up…not for any reason in particular…just because I wanted to.  I walked with her around the house and even said something to her like, “Hey girl…there are just times that your daddy wants to carry you!”

Later on that night I felt the Lord tell me, “It’s the same with me & you…there are just times that I want to carry you.  You didn’t ask me to.  You weren’t aware that I wanted to.  But I did…and your life was better for it.”

I am blown away by how good God has been to me all throughout my life.  As I look back over my brief time on this planet…He’s carried me so many times.  AND…at times I could not tell He was there…but now I can see He was (and is) more faithful than I could have ever imagined.

He carried me!  AND my life is so much better for it!
