God's Excitement

Have you ever wondered how excited God is when you come back to Him?

As I mentioned before, I'm currently visiting my family in WA and I arrived today. Now, most of my family greeted me as they always do... a smile and a hello. It's how my familly is... it's not much but it's enough. But then there is one member of my family that greets me very differently. My dog.

When I walk through the door, my dog goes crazy! He jumps up and down, his tail wags so much I think it's going to fall off, he barks when I don't acknowledge him, he follows me around for hours. That's a lot of excitement for a little dog. I imagine that Gods excitement when we come back to Him would be similar. I don't expect that He is going to wag a tail or bark but I do believe that He gets excited for us more than we can imagine.

In the story of the prodigals son, Luke 15:11-32, we read about how the father greeted his son when he returned. He gave him a whole lot of attention, and gave him all that was his, he also decided to throw a great celebration. God wants to celebrate our return to Him. Don't think that it's not a big deal... because it is to Him!

Thankful for: Family 

My first day back with my family was today and they great. They're a crazy bunch, but they're my family, and I love them!
