...Touched...

I was touched by the playful interaction between a daddy and his little girl at the park. As I walked and took pictures, they rode bikes and laughed. I stopped to sit on a bench and enjoy the sunset; they got off their bikes and the daughter said, "Daddy...try to catch me!" and off she ran. I watched, my eyes misting, as they chased each other and giggled and eventually, the daddy let himself be caught. They fell to the grass, happy... and they laid there watching the sky. The daddy got up and spun his little girl around and around and carried her on his shoulders for some time. I began to feel tears rolling down my cheeks...it really affected me. Thenin the midst of that moment, I heard a voice, and I knew it was the voice of my Abba, my daddy God whispering...come chase me! I want you to want ME! Wow... The God who created this place we live in and all that is beyond and who created us, wants to be wanted, He loves to interact with us, to love us and to receive our love in return! Sweet... I'm off to chase Him... :-)
