Sitting still and quiet has never been easy for me. Usually, if I’m not around people I get in a bad state of mind and hide under my covers all day. Sometimes more than a day. I always have to be with people. On the world race, Sabbath day is the worst for me. It’s really hard to get through the day in silence because I thrive on quality time and hanging out with friends. I’ve been praying about this and the Lord has great ways of communicating.
In a little town called Perise in a little country called Haiti, God created a little boy called Sebastian. We went to a school in Perise where I got to meet this sweet little tub of love. As my team was telling a bible story, I was holding Sebastian and he fell asleep on my lap. I eventually picked him up and cradled him. The Lord created this moment before I was even born to tell me exactly this, “Crawl up in my lap and let me cradle you. This is how I want you to rest with me. Let me love you and hold you just as you are with Sebastian.”
I get amazed every day at how the Lord communicates with me. All he wants is to spend quality time with me. Even if I’m not around anyone, the Father is always with me. He wants to hang out with me, hear about my day, my thoughts and my opinions more than anyone else does. Thank you God for showing me that I can crawl in your lap and rest. That I don’t have to freak out when no one is around because no one can ever separate me from you.
