On all four sides - no escape. Everywhere you turn, it is there...
Being surrounded is relative. If you are an escaped prisoner - not a good outcome for you. Maybe surrounded is not a good example. Trying to think if I feel that to be surrounded is a plus or minus. When I did this layout last night, it was the only word I considered. These kids are surrounded by love. We follow them around everytime they move. Their perception of us is one similiar to a fan club. They think we are there just for them. To play or hand out snacks - always on guard for any potential trouble or boo boo's.
That is exactly how I want them to feel. I want them to think because of the love that surrounds them, they are free. Free from worrying about if they are going to eat or have a bed to sleep in. Free to explore and see the world without fear. We can't protect them from everything but we sure can give them our best. For the best, we give them to Jesus.
We surround them with all we have but never shield them from Him. They are His - He has given them to us to love, teach and cherish. We love them in our way, He is His. Between the two of us, they can lose...
