ENJOY EVERYTHING

I wasn't going to post this video because I didn't feel it was "spiritual" enough. Mainly because the music is from a non-Christian artist, the speech is from the movie "Hook" and the quote at the beginning is from an author that I do not know.

But, I woke up this morning and felt to deeply encourage each parent to enjoy every moment with your children. I want to gently suggest that you shut off your phone for a while, close your laptop, turn off the TV and dive fully into attention to your children.

Let's hold them a little longer.
Look in their eyes a little deeper. Listen a little harder.
Enjoy everything.
Delight in every moment.
Make up adventures.
Do nothing.
Be sillier.
Believe.
Converse.
Think together.
Work together.
Take in every bit of life that we can.
Suck every nectar out of this season of family and number our days that we may truly be wise and so richly enjoy all the aspects of this life we have been given by God.

Sooo good!! I saw Jesus ALL over this! The love of a father for his kids and how he adores them as much as they adore him! Papa God's heart for us as well! Beautifully filmed!! At about 25 seconds I saw the face of our Papa in the sun shining through the trees!! Loved this 💜

Children are such priceless treasures who say the most profound and silly things with no filter hahaha and the moments we play and laugh with them creates such an indelible mark on their little hearts that will shape and mould them. As a mom of a bright, tender hearted and active 5 yr old son, I sensed the Lord gently remind me just last night to play and laugh with my son and to not allow the demands of life to consume my attention and time but to stay in the moment and truly enjoy my family. Seeing this video absolutely confirmed that. Thanks for posting...your work is beautiful and encouraging.

With the blink of an eye they are all grown up. Cherish each and every moment...even the tough ones! :)

Eric, is it possible to live in deep awareness / enjoyment of God and at the same time stay close with your kids and your spouse? Sadly, many people, including ministers, struggle with this, even, beloved A. W. Tozer did... So far I find it difficult, too. What's the secret?
