Everyday Children

I've taken up the challenge and entered Everyday Mommy's writing contest.

What My Children Taught Me about God

Even while inside, my children grew
Vast amounts of love from God came through.
Endless months of waiting to see their face
Reminded me of God’s love and His patient grace.
Years of parenting and sacrifice every day
Does not compare with the price God’s son had to pay.
Always willing to forgive, accept, and love
Yes, my children are much like my Father above.

Children teach though WE might not see
How truly spiritual they can be.
In one simple smile or little touch the
Love of God can be seen so much.
Did God give me children so I can teach? No,
Rather my children have taught beyond my reach.
Every second of every day
No one else teaches about God’s love in the same way.
