I love it when my kids love me. Yesterday I was sick, I either had food poisoning or a virus. Whatever it was, it was awful. As I was laid up in bed my son would come in about every 10 minutes asking me if I needed anything (he was kind of bugging me, but I knew he was there simply because he loves me). My daughter asked if I needed her favorite pillow (it always makes her feel better), and then they both made me get well cards. Bottom line, they just wouldn't leave me alone; and I loved it. I think that is what God wants from us. He wants to be loved by His children. The joy that we give Him when we wont leave Him alone, when we bug him every ten minutes goes beyond our understanding. Yesterday my children taught me a little bit more about the relational joy that children can give to their parents. God loves it when when His children love Him. If you haven't already, you should bug Him a little bit, He loves it.
"The LORD your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing." Zephaniah 3:17 NIV
