Feeling Favor

We've had another week of sickness around here. Cancelled playdates. Cabin fever. And the weather to match all the dreariness.

This weekend was glorious though. Sunny and warm. And, finally, the girls are well enough to frolic in it.

Do you ever feel God's favor? Like really feel it?

God's favor feels like getting into a car that's been in the sun--the warmth wrap its arms around you, and embraces you tight.

That's how this weekend felt. I felt God's favor. His pleasure.

Thank you, Jesus.
