Our daughter recently posted a picture that compared a photo of me at five years of age...and a current picture of her. It was very interesting to see how much she resembles me...although I definitely see lots of her Dad in her, too. She smiles like him. Her hands and feet are just like his. She is built smaller like his family. She is definitely a good combination of her parents.
We also see many similarities in Micah. Most people see the resemblance of his Dad when they first meet him. Yet he looks much like my high school and college pictures. He has my smile and my "puppy dog eyes." He is tall like the Huffmans. But his brown eyes and dark skin definitely resemble his Dad more than me. He is also a good combination of his parents.
I began thinking. How much do I resemble my Heavenly Father? Do I speak as He would speak? Do I love as He loves? Am I grateful for all He does? Do I listen to others' hearts as He listens to mine? As we celebrate His birth, I pray that I will focus most on His love and life. May my life be more like His each moment of this journey.<3~thl
