Today Xavier climbed a ladder to get on the roof to be with me. How many of us go this far to be with our Father (God)? When I get home from work Xavier comes running and I get a big hug. For the first year Kim or I would hold him until he fell asleep and then we held him until we went to bed. Xavier wants to be with us and we want to be with him always 24/7. How many people that claim to be christians have this same desire for God? Do we wake up wanting Him? Do we spend our day with Him? Do we go to sleep wanting Him?
He is the vine and we are the branches. Where does the vine stop and the branch start? It is impossible to say. They are one and joined together. The branch cannot survive without the vine. The branch gets everything it needs from the vine.
Xavier cannot go long without me before he gets upset and misses me. How long do you go with out talking and spending time with God? We should pray continously never stopping. We work with God not for Him. We are in Him and He is in us. When do you let Him guide your day and life? When was the last time you heard His voice or felt His presence? His voice is so reassuring, comforting, positive.
Father I Love You!! Thank you for this incredible life and the adventure you started in me. Please continue the guidance and leading me into the future and making me the man you want me to be.
