Last night I was praying... wondering why it felt like God wasn't answering this particular prayer. It's something that I keep struggling with and I began to get very emotional. Soon I sniffling and quietly trying not to full out sob. My husband was asleep on the couch and our daughter was asleep in her room. While her room is right next to ours, which is where I was, she had been asleep for hours and usually is a VERY sound sleeper. After all, she is only 4. When my heart was hurting most my daughter called out, "Mommy..." I was very surprised, quickly collected myself and tried my best to reply, "Yes," through the sniffling. Just then, as if she had been wide awake for hours she replied in the most sincere, heart warming way a simple, "I loooove you." I could cry all over again thinking about how happy it made me.... how utterly shocked I was to hear such a thing at such an hour.
In the morning I asked her if she remembered waking up to tell me that she loved me. She did not. My thoughts? The Holy Spirit... The Lord's way of telling me He hears me and He loves me. Isaiah 40:31 King James Bible But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
