how He loves

I love seeing things that I've become used to through my children's eyes. I don't know that Easter is ever something that one should become "used to," but as the years have passed, it's become another holiday that marks how quickly the years are flying by, as in "Good night, is it Easter already?? Didn't this just happen??"

Anyway, Miss K drew this last night with her daddy. She wasn't prompted, she just drew it. She's got such a tender heart - it's really amazing to see the Holy Spirit working in her life, drawing her to Christ in such a sweet way. So hopefully this year I can really stop, and focus on the wonder of Christ, the wonder of His love for us all, His love for the Father, displayed in the cross. A song that keeps ringing in my mind is John Mark McMillan's "How He Loves" - if you haven't heard it yet, click here, find "How He Loves," and have a listen...
