"We're His dear little children. God knows that kids fall down sometimes and scrape their knees, get dirty and make messes. And He adores us in every one of those moments!"

"Let these children alone. Don't get between them and Me. These children are the kingdom's pride and joy."
Luke 18:16
When a toddler is crawling, then standing, then falling, over and over again, the parent doesn't complain that the baby keeps falling down all the time and just can't do anything well. No! The parent says with pride, "Look at my wonderful little child who is learning to walk!" We, too, are little children in God's eyes. We fall down many times, yet it's all part of life, and often those times are when we grow and learn of God's closeness and love. God is looking on us with pride and joy, too, saying, "Look at My wonderful child who is learning to live!"
A thought: God is always proud of me, His little child.
