Blessedness

I love kids. I used to make a really funny joke (at least I think is funny, but just because of lauguage) about how much I want to have kids. I remember that night me and my friend were looking at pictures of his younger sister, and I suddenly said:

" Oh she is so cute. I want to get pregnant!"

My friend looked at me and said, " Soda, that is not right. You want to have kids, and you need to get married first!"

But I continued to emprasize that I want to get pregnant. But I wanted to express, I am so exctied about seeing myself having another life in my body, and that is such a blessing from God.

Luckily, before I can have my own kids, I spent time with lots of amazing super cute kids. I have been teaching the summer day camp at my church for 3 years, and I also met married couples' kids. I feel so alive being around with kids. Kids are pure, they tell their hearts; some kids cry all the time, they need love from others, and I learnt that human beings are vulnerable, it is okay to express our emotions; some kids always want to get your attention, and I know what this is human nature, everyone wants to get attention from others to show he/she is part of your life.
I just learnt so much from the kids.

      

I specailly love how kids just love Jesus without any doubts. They trust Him, and they pray with their whole hearts. That is pure love, and in the Bible, He said:

"Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.”( Mattew 18:3)

When we grew up, we think we have more power and we are able to not trusting God to just in control of our lives, but the fact is we can't. We are sinnful and we need to continue to seek help from God. Spending time with the kids is such a blessing in my life, I love it. And I realized that I have to rely on God and trusting him without any doubt like a kid does.

I pray that God can continue to show me how amazing He is, and I believe that kids reflecting His grace. I am so blessed.
