I am at home without the baby (Nathanael) for the first day in my life since he was born!! It is amazing how much time a baby can take. However, our baby is rather special, he takes a lot of time. I believe my mother calls him a high need child. His mind is constantly moving, and so is he. He is always busy; playing, moving, and at the same time making an awful mess of things. :) So, for us to keep up with him takes a lot of energy. I recently babysat 5 children ages 4, 3, 2, 1, and 1 month. All of them together were less work than Nathanael is! :)
It has been raining for about a week here. We were flooded in for a day once, but I am so thankful for the rain! I would rather it be raining, than for it to be too hot. :) Listening to the awesome thunder and watching the lightening from the storms brought this Psalm to my mind.
O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.
Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.
When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;
What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?
For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.
Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet:
All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;
The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.
O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! Psalms 8
Isn't it amazing?! The God of all the universe cares about man. More than that, he cares about me and you! He visits us, he is always with us. Doesn't it just awe you? Praise God!
