reaching

This morning I went in to get Claire out of her bed. Note about Claire: if you just grab her up out of bed, you will hear about it. She prefers that you reach for her and when she is ready, she will come to you. So, I was reaching for her…for a while. Then she decided that she was ready to get out and came to me. We hugged and hugged. It was a wonderful start to my day.

As I was watching her this morning, I thought how perfect a picture it was of me and God. He is standing – arms stretched out. But He will never force me to come to Him. I must choose to reach out to Him. Where is your heart today? How long has God been waiting for you to reach out to Him?
