I received a precious gift from my seven-year-old daughter recently. Karis wrote the lyrics out and presented them to me as she broke into sweet song.
You are the best mom (reapeet)
in the hole wide wold (reapeet)
I love it when I sit on your lap (reapeet)
I lo——-ve you———- (reapeet)
I felt like the luckiest mom on the planet. In my opinion, this was better than anything the Grammy Awards had heard, and the fact that it was delivered with a big hug made it even more special.
Done anything personal for your Heavenly Father lately? No, not just anything. Something that you put your heart into, pouring out your love for Him. No need to make it fancy or try to impress. Isaiah 43:4 reminds us we are precious and honored in His sight and He loves us. Our heartfelt expressions of adoration are music to His ears. As Casting Crown sings, “Let my lifesong sing to you….”
