It is one of my favorite memories. While our children were small, it was a tradition to say bedtime prayers and sing a lulluby to them each night. Whatever happened during the day, whether positive or challenging, there was a reserved time for our prayers, lullaby, and good night love and hugs. Somehow, that completed each day more peacefully.
Before our babies were even born, I sang, spoke and read to them. From newborns on, there was no question our children would be held in my arms at the end of the day to listen, love, sing and pray together.
Many times I sincerely wish I could reach up to God as He places me in His arms and holds me in His lap. I long to feel His heart beating, hear His voice speaking, share all my daily cares with Him and then...rest in His arms as He sings me to sleep. I wonder what lullaby God would sing and just how amazing His singing voice would sound to the ears of His children.
Then I remember. He does listen. He does love. He holds me in His arms. He cares about what I experience. He speaks....and He sings to me. Tonight is one of those nights I really want to fall asleep in His arms as God sings His precious lullaby of love.♥~thl
"The Lord your God is with you, He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing." Zephaniah 3: 17
