Today I watched my neice, Sophia, who is nearly eight months. (Mom and Sister Lily had gone off to the airport to pick up Grammy.) After a good nap and bottle, Sophia needed a little snack. I reached for a baby biscuit, put on my shoes and we went out for a walk. The stroller wasn't in sight, so I decided to carry Sophia as she was a bit clingy.
While we walked, I experienced such a joy and a peace. Sophia gently lay her head on my heart and was calmly sucking on her biscuit as my heart melted inside. As we slowly strolled along, I looked up to the sky to thank God for her. The wind blowing through the trees seemed to respond by singing praises, "Great is Thy Faithfulness" and "Holy, holy, holy, the earth is filled with Thy glory!"
That was my little peace for today. Thank you, God.
