Good gifts

I know that God loves me, though my feeble little mind can't really comprehend how very much He does.

I also know that He loves to bless me, because His Word says so.

I, too, love to bless my kids. Whether it's something little (like going to Sonic for an ice cream) or something big (like sending my daughter to a UT volleyball camp), I truly enjoy blessing them.

Yesterday I bought tickets for my daughter and I to see Taylor Swift in concert. The seats aren't the greatest, but she didn't care. She was just thrilled to be able to go.

This is truly her dream concert. We saw her last summer, but it wasn't a full concert and she didn't to meet her.

But in September, she will.

Just the idea of how excited my daughter will be that night makes me so stinkin' happy, and it is in that moment I can catch just a tiny glimpse of how the Lord feels when He blesses us.

"If you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give good gifts to those who ask Him." Matthew 7:11
