Children Run to Me

     The children will run to me when they don't know the person very well. That feeling is a good feeling. I know that I got their trust yet they will listen to be at the same time. It has been fun having a group of 4 by myself at work. It was hard work but know I can see that hard work,  warning their trust,  is paying off in some ways.
       They know I love them and want the best for them. I've seen that with this group of children during these past few weeks. I am their comfort. What I say goes most of the time. I'm going to miss that but it's neat to see that I can only build that trust in 3 months or less with all the hard things. It sure wasn't easy at all! :) It is the constant being there for them. Someone they know that won't go away.
          They might not remember what was said but at least I was there for them and it showed through my actions. Maybe the mom thing isn't has scary as it seems might be hard for sure but not scary. I can't think of how much a mom worries too.  I worry a lot about the children and they are not even more. I know that's Love but if I have that much love for other children how much would I have for my own. How much does God have for us, especially in our sinful state. I could and do stay up late going over the day and what I could do differently the next day. Thank God though we have another chance or should. 
          Not only do the children run to me but I run to a lot of other people even them for different things like fun times when I need to get my mind off of things. I noticed and was thinking about how I have 3 brothers in Christ that I could point out and a lot more sisters in Christ that I can run to for help when I need the encouragement or help. It is like a big cycle and that is what I believed God meant it to be. To see Him through other people. To share His Grace and Love with other people. To share His Message with the world. The children see Him through me but I see Him through my friends and family.
          The children run to me like we should run to God in our time of needs or really anytime. We should take our dreams and problems to God and let go of them so He can work on them.
