You are worth more than many sparrows...

Matthew 10:29-31

29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care.[a] 30 And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

Let Go of Me, Mommy!

Tonight I was reading Ava her good night book, we had said our prayers and I was playing a little toes game with her. This child is such a cuddler and her skin is just so baby soft. I had to hug her. And I was kissing her shoulders, when she said, "Mommy let go of me!"Then she would giggle.(smile) For a split second, unexpectedly those words stung my heart. My Mommy heart and soul, because I know one day that will be exactly what I will have to do. Let Go!

I have been thinking a lot lately. To much! I have always been a thinker, a muller over of situations and events. I do this to much sometimes. My sensitivity lately has been running high! We have some illness going on in my immediate family that has been keeping me daily living in the moment and forgiving the past. Our children have been sick recently with the cold/flu and bizarre fevers. Ava's eye sight worries me on a constant basis. My friendships are being changed completely and some what unexpectedly! My mind is whirling right now.God is growing me, but it hurts like crazy! I think in some ways this is good. Actually, it is good! I went on a walk at the lake today... I fear that I am trying to handle to much on my own and not giving it to God. Well, I am...because I am feeling burdened and My God has written in His book of truth that HIS burden is Light! Right now my burden is to heavy. I think to myself, I don't know what to do, but that isn't true. I do know what to do...Let Go, and give it to God!

If you are finding yourself carrying a burden that is heavy...Give it to God and LET GO!

Longing for Heaven, Shannon
