simplicity of a child


today is one of those days where i'm really blessed to be a child of God. many times we really take it for granted. but seriously, no one loves me as much as my Daddy in Heaven.

was talking tonight to an amazing woman of God :) and one of the things we were randomly talking about really hit me.

i want to know God and grow in walking with Him without an agenda.

no expectations i have to meet, no duties i need to perform, no roles i have to play, no needs i need met but just the simplicity of a child wanting to know her Father.

i want to know my Savior, i want to know what's on the heart of the One who loves me. i want to sing my love songs to Him and twirl around silly as He dances and sings over me.
wanting to know and love Him because He gave His life for me and loves me unreservedly.

i am loved by my Father. :)

i was given these verses in a prophecy about 4 years ago. the truth of it all hit me again today and i am FREE to be His child, to love Him, and not a slave to fear.

Romans 8:15-17
For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by him we cry, "Abba, Father." The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God's children. Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.
