God Keeps Me Safe

     My computer is crashing so we'll see if I can keep up with this from my phone. The entries might be a lot shorter though. Another child story. Last night at my job I had quite the experience that I haven't had for awhile there. One of the children started to go crazy and I mean that in the nicest way possible.
       This child started to throw things at a staff because the child wanted something that he couldn't have. I took the child to another room so he could calm down bit he didn't for awhile. He was talking in jabber and running up and down the hall. Back and forth to the bedroom.  I finally got him to sit down where I could hold him and take to him.
        I got him to sit down and I started asking questions like "why are you acting this way", "why are you mad", and none of them worked. I finally told him that he was safe at this place and it seemed like that madness just turned off like that. He was nice and calm for  the rest of the night.
        Then at bedtime he wouldn't go to sleep and he kept looking at the lighted stars on the ceiling so we got to talking about what was in the sky. There was a moment that I got to tell him about God and how He is up there in the sky watching over him and keeping him safe too. That God is always keeping him safe no matter where he goes. It didn't seem like he understood but you never know with little children. I just thought it was strange that he could go from hyper to calm in just a few seconds but that's normal at my job with the children.
         Just in my mind I like to think of it has a evil spirit inside of him but Drs and other people have other ideas. You never know with my job what it could be all you can do is pray for these children and help them while they are with you.
