Tonight I was headed out to check the mailbox.
Just looking up, breathing in the night air and just feeling this moment..
Being grateful for the ability to even walk out driveway and even be able to and want to check the mail.
My mind has been everywhere the past few weeks and I this breathing.
Finding a deep breathe is a struggle sometimes lol.
But God!
He is our very breath.
So to be able to slow down tonight and let my mind stop for a minute and embrace open heaven was really nice.
I check the mail and turn to walk away and see this leaf heart and of corse I smile and my heart skips a beat.
(Derek and Jesus both know the way to this girls heart.) and I stopped and just awww and enjoyed my butterflies for like 2 seconds even giggled out loud over it and went to take a picture and then thought nah. And walked on down the driveway.
And with each step I took, my heart was drawn back to the heart.
To take a picture because I always do.
And for a minute I thought I don’t have to.
It’s ok.
I seen it Lord.
I seen it baby.
No one else wants to see it.
I know. Yall know. It’s ok.
Then I heard the Lord say. “I know you seen it so be cheerful about it. Go get your picture.”
He knew my heart wanted to share this moment with you.
Because the moment I went to take the picture my 1st through was. I can’t wait to show this to my sweet friends and remind them they are loved too and are prayed for.
But then hesitant, for whatever reason, and walked on.
Gosh. I don’t even have to know the reason my flesh hesitate. Maybe I subconsciously think I drive y’all crazy with my post sometimes. Who knows lol.
But the truth is…
God tries to drive us crazy in Love with His attention getters all the time. He don’t care what it takes.
He longs to have our gaze.
He longs to be able to love us.
He longs to have our heart one with Him.
And if the opportunity to tell you Jesus Loves you soooo much and wants to be your everything, comes through a heart Leaf…
Then I sure don’t want to miss it.
You are on my mind.
You are on my heart.
You are always prayed for.
You are so tenderly and deeply loved.
And you really are so divinely protected.
This scripture came to mind as He reminded me to be cheerful about it.
Proverbs 17:22: “A happy heart is good medicine and a cheerful mind works healing”
It’s so easy to think something so simple as a heart leaf don’t matter to anyone else but me but the truth is….
God also placed it there for you.
I wasn’t not cheerful in what it did to my heart in that moment. A sweet peace and a hug from heaven.
I just almost miss the opportunity to share cheer, hope, and His Amazing Love with you.
I pray tomorrow…
Heart leaves and heart rocks and heart chips and heart noodles and heart everything comes at you so much that you know it’s undeniably God trying to love on you and let you know He sees you…
And He loves you.
Right where you are.
And I also pray that if you have a loved One standing next to Him that one of those hearts is extra extra on the Love so you can feel their hug around you too.
I love you sweet sweet friend.
You are not alone.
