Hard Days

God does some really cool stuff. Sunrises, mountain ranges, water so clear you can't tell where it ends and the sky begins. He created beauty in the white sandy beaches of Florida and in the snow capped mountains of Colorado. He even showed His greatness in the dusty ground of the great state of Texas. God has done a million awesome things for us and I have one more to add to the list.


When babies are born they don't do much. They can't cook their own dinner, clean their rooms or even wipe their cute little noses. But the one really cool thing they can do is grip. It doesn't sound that awesome but when you are holding a tiny baby and she wraps her tiny fingers around yours, it's impossible for your heart not to melt. I think God did that on purpose. I think He knew that some days would be hard...really hard. Some days you would question everything. Some days her tears would bring you to tears. But He, in all His wisdom, made sure babies were born with the ability to grip so on the hard days when she holds your finger, it would remind you that she needs you. Her everything depends on you. And it would remind us that there is always a hand we can wrap ours around too. It's always stretched out for us...especially on the hard days.
