A Comforting Thought

In our room at SBC, we recently welcomed two new children. Both are adjusting to being away from their parents for the first time, which isn't the easiest adjustment to make.

So, I have been spending a lot of time holding crying children these past few days.

But, there are other children in the room who also need to be held sometimes, so I have to put one down to hold another.

My arms cannot manage more than one child at a time.

But, God's can. God's arm are big enough to hold our entire crying world.

What a comforting thought.

Let us walk in the holy presence.
