All You Need is Love

Wednesday starts out kinda like this:

I think of something someone once told me,
"As you live your life righteously, your children will love and honor you as their mother"

But I hear and see a tantrum.
I feel little hands hitting me.

"I don't understand. Sure, the love and honor will come full circle when they're older, but what about now? I need love, I've been trying so hard..."

Sigh

I wasn't about to let the day get the better of me.



I wake up Thursday, and I feel loving arms embrace me.
My mind sweeps back to this:

And I feel loved.


I hear a small, yet surprisingly loud, voice,
"Mommeeeee, Daddeeeee"
The embrace ends, but soon at my side is our beautiful creation.

He smiles and he lets me love his face with my touch.
Then, the miracle,
He loves my face with his little touch.
My mind sweeps back to this:

And I feel loved.

I glance over my shoulder and see something like this:

Smiling ever so sweetly,
yet another beautiful creation.

And I feel loved.

I recognize the Lord's answer to my prayers,
And I know

That I am loved.
