"Love doesn't have to be spoken in words."
I had another God moment at work yesterday. I really saw and felt God there. It was a really great reminder of what love really is. Love is not just an "I love you" every now and then. It is more through the actions a person does for another. Yes, we can say it over and over but until we can prove it, it means nothing. It is a simple 4 letter word but yet as an action it's so hard.
Another one of my little girls came back but she with the big girls now because she is 5 or 6 years old. I saw her back for the first time at supper last night and she gave me the tightest hug ever. At first I don't think she noticed me because of my new haircut so she looked at me strange. I started to smile at her and that's when she noticed it was me and she smiled back really big.
She wanted to run to me but her staff wouldn't let her. She did though walk up to me and hugged me tight. I hugged her tight right back and not a word was said by either of us. I did not want to let go of her again. It was a moment that showed me love doesn't have to come with words every time. It can be quite and really in the heart. Actions can mean everything when they are done out of love. She has really grown into a beautiful girl and she was in a yellow summer dress with yellow flip flops on. Her hair was shoulder length so it grown out a little.
We get so caught up in thinking love is just show through words but that is not the case. This is the girl that I had by herself most of her time in preschool. I got to spend time with her, rock her to sleep, she is the first one I read the Bible to, even gave her a Bible to take with her. She told me everything. She was a talkative one at night. She was the first one that felt like my own child. Honestly if I could adopted now, she wouldn't be where I work.
She was my first princess and having a yellow dress on yesterday made her Belle to me. :) She is the 6th child that I've had since I've been there for a year and a half that came back. Just sayin'.

Lesson from this enerty: "Love has no words and no limits when it is Godly Love."
