Smile

I notice that my daughter Emily writes and says "end of story" a lot. I think it's super cute but it also makes me smile because there is little "end of story" when she talks. I just love that about her. We don't get to talk as much since she lives so far away and we have a 3 hour time difference and she works during the day. I am super excited that I will get to hug her this month. I can't wait to take a walk together, just the two of us and sit in our sunroom on our "girl chatting sofa." She knows which one that is. When I go too long without this I begin to long for it. (It's been 4 months since I've seen Emily.)

As I was writing this it made me think of how I feel about my relationship with Jesus. If I go too long without time to hang out and talk with him I begin to long for it. I miss it. Each morning when I wake up I love my coffee and my bible and if somehow the day doesn't start out that way I miss it. I know he misses me too. That is super great to me that Jesus misses spending time with his children. We all get so busy in our days that we forget about him. Jesus spent time with his disciples - he built a relationship with them - and he wants to build one with us too. Ya, I know this sounds a little like yesterdays blog but that's what came to me as I began to write.

Smile today - you are loved.
