Whimsy is…

So I actually did start listening to my stored up podcasts. (See previous post) I was listening to the June 26 In Touch podcast. It talks specifically about mothers praying for their children (If I did the link right). So as I was listening and washing dishes, my daughter Lauren was brought to my heart. She often feels like she’s getting the short end of the deal (any deal). It’s very frustrating as a mother and I often react in a way that just makes her feel more jilted. (Like telling her to just get over it already) God showed me what I needed to pray over her. In front of her, where she could hear me (not something I’m good at)
Well, wouldn’t you know I hear a creaking door (which startled me a good bit I must say) and down the steps walked a very sleepy Lauren. Can’t hardly deny God in a situation like that now can you?
She was not very keen on staying up long enough for me to pray for her, but she let me. I fumbled through it and let her get back to bed. Maybe she was just sleepy enough not to realiz what a lackluster job I did. Thank goodness I have Jesus to filter that stuff for me!
