Wonder

God keeps giving me little pieces of awesome.  Like my niece's fat little cheeks.  A sunny day with a breeze, like today.  A call from a girlfriend updating me on the status of her new relationship.   A job that I still love even though I work way too many hours at it.  Trips planned here, there and everywhere.  Good music.

I don't want to take these blessings for granted.  I want to take them in and hold them like a child holds her treasures: with big eyes, in cupped hands.  

Love poured out on me is not to be taken for granted.  Every good thing is from my Jesus.  My God, my Friend, my Lover.  It makes me look forward to that moment when I run across the grass in Heaven and throw myself into His arms. 

See what I mean? (=
