I always feel so close to heaven when I hold a new little baby and look into their eyes, so full of potential and love. All of us were sweet innocent children once, but then life happens. Through the grace of Jesus Christ, we all have a way to overcome and know who we really are…a child of God.

This song is a reminder that even thought life gets busy, there is joy and strength when we slow down and soak in the word of Jesus and have His guidance in our lives.
Our efforts to see and really get to know others is basic to God’s commandment that we love one another, as He loves us.
