Apple of My Eye
Do you ever tell someone they are the apple of your eye?
I do.
I tell each of my children that.
How is it possible to have more than one apple of my eye? I don't know exactly how it works...it just does.
My oldest son is the apple of my eye.
He is steady and uncompromising.
I love him because he is my son.
I love him because he is who he is.
My oldest daughter is the apple of my eye.
She is industrious and outgoing and likes to share...everything!
I love her because she is my daughter.
I love her because she is who she is.
My second son is the apple of my eye.
He is determined and strong and ready for anything.
I love him because he is my son.
I love him because he is who he is.
My second daughter is the apple of my eye.
She is calmly interested in the world around her. She likes to see what people are doing.
I love her because she is my daughter.
I love her because she is who she is.
My third daughter is the apple of my eye.
She is busy and curious and likes to go, go, go.
I love her because she is my daughter.
I love her because she is who she is.
Do you see a pattern here?.
I don't love one more than another...I love them each the most!
I love them each differently.
Love grows. It is infinite.
If we as sinful, imperfect, humans can love this much, how much more does God love us...His children?
It doesn't matter if there are a kajillion others...I am the apple of His eye!
He made me and loves me...just because he wants to!
That brings me peace.
That brings me joy!
Just think about it for a while.
