God is Committed to Us!

Shortly after GG came to live with us!  So tiny!
Mom & Daughter
Such a character!

At GG's dedication in Costa Rica
 My daughter has been making some bad choices recently.  I will not share what all those are for her protection, but if she doesn't choose a different path it may be detrimental to her as she grows older.

I love her so much, she is my daughter.  I had a conversation with her just recently.  I told her how much I loved her and I was committed to her; committed to do everything I could to participate with God so she would grow up and be the woman God  created her to be; that this is how she will live to the fullest.  At this point I needed to ask God and see how I could teach her and work with Him to empower her to make different decisions.  I knew that she may not like some of the decisions I needed to make and she would not like the consequences.  I wanted to protect her, I didn't want to see her having to do somethings I knew she would not like; but I loved her too much not to.  I knew it might not be pleasant to her now, but hopefully it would help her in the future.  

Our Heavenly Father is often in this place with us and I am sure He hurts as much as I do with Georgina.  When we say yes to Jesus, He is committed to empower us to be everything He created us to be; He is committed to mature us and empower us to grow up.  Not because He is mean or wants to hurt us in anyway, not because He doesn't care.  It is because He cares, it is because He treasures humanity so much.  

Trust Him, know that He loves you and wants to be with you.  

I would love to sit with you in person, over coffee and talk about this.  Stand on that foundation; that God loves you more than you can even understand.
