🌟✨ Sharing a Heartfelt Reflection ✨🌟
Hey friends! 🌸 I wanted to take a moment and share something that's been on my mind lately.
Yesterday the girls struggled with focus. They had a couple chores and complete their learning sheets. Collin and I had to keep reminding them to stay focused.
Something that should have taken a couple hours ended up taking all day because of all of the unnecessary distractions.
This morning when Collin went to work, I suggested picking up all of their toys in the basement before he comes home from work. They thought it was an excellent idea and they literally hit the ground running!
So, why is the desire to do this work as a surprise far more appealing as opposed to obeying when we're told? I couldn't help but put this in context of obedience to our Heavenly Father and our desire to please Him.
As children, we have this natural inclination to please our parents, to make them proud, and to seek their approval. It's almost like an unwritten rule in our little hearts.
But have you ever stopped to think about how this principle applies to our relationship with our Heavenly Father? 🙏💖
Just as we want to bring a smile to our parents' faces when they aren't around, shouldn't the same be true when it comes to pleasing our heavenly Father, who is always watching over us, even in the unseen moments?
Think about it for a moment: the unconditional love, grace, and guidance we receive from our Heavenly Father are immeasurable. He wants the best for us and knows what truly brings us joy and fulfillment. Pleasing Him isn't about trying to earn His love or approval, but rather about aligning our lives with His will and experiencing the abundant life He has prepared for us.
When we make choices that honor and please God, it's like a heartfelt expression of gratitude for all He has done for us. It's an act of love, faith, and trust. And the beautiful thing is, when we live in harmony with His desires, we ultimately find true joy and contentment.
So, let's take a moment today to reflect on our actions, thoughts, and attitudes. Let's strive to please our Heavenly Father, not out of obligation, but out of a genuine desire to grow closer to Him and to live in a way that brings Him glory. 🌟💫
Remember, friends, we are His beloved children, and His love for us knows no bounds. Let's delight in pleasing Him, just as we did with our parents as little ones, and watch as our lives are transformed in unimaginable ways. 🌈💗
Sending love and blessings to each and every one of you! 🌺🌼
