A Peep Hole into Heaven

I love that God has blessed me with such amazing children around me. I had lunch with two of them. They are so much fun. I am so thankful God made everything just the way He did. I love that Halden can help me gather all my stuff and drag it to the car. I love that Jace smiles so hard you'd think his face would break when he sees me. I love that Alex can make up the most amazing stories, loves to cuddle and lights up when he sees me. I love that Alex lights up when he sees my husband too. Although we laughed pretty hard when Jace saw Dan and couldn't get close enough to me trying to get away from him. Not sure who he thought Dan was but for some reason he scared him. They made up later however. I love their laughter and how it fills my very soul. I love watching Jace's face and thinking that's how God must look at us. And I like both the pure love look and the what the heck are you doing look. I think sometimes God must use that one too. I look at those faces and thank God for them. I look at their pictures and do the same thing. I love the people God has placed in my life. It amazes me that He thinks so much of me to trust me with some of His most precious people on this Earth. And that He has given me to them too. Though I confess I believe I get the better part of that deal. I sometimes wonder and am amazed at the fact that He made all of us. Knew we were going to be part of this world some 6000 years after He made it and still He never hesitated. Decided to die for us. Have His Spirit indwell in us and keeps us going, when we just must drive Him completely nuts. (Okay He sees the big picture and has more patience than Job, so it's more accurate to say that what we do, especially what I do, drives me nuts). You just can't compare that kind of love to anything else. You can try, but there just isn't words to describe it, not from our world anyway. I wonder if before the tower of Babel, I wonder if they had the words then. I know I think too much. It's one of the things I can't wait to ask God when I see Him face to face, or maybe we will just know by then. For now, well I think I will stick with studying the faces and the love from the kiddos around me. From their eyes I can see into a peep hole of Heaven. Just a small portion of what will be our forever kingdom. A life of pure joy, unbelievable happiness, answers to all our questions, and the most incredible Love that ever was, is or will be. Yes Heaven is going to be Awesome and I know because I saw a small part of it in the eyes of a child.
