Tantrums
"So rock-a-bye baby
Come and rest
You've been tired lately
Lay your head down
Don't you think, baby
l know best
l have been a Father
For a long time" Steffany Gretzinger- Cecie's Lullaby
Most of my moments are inspired by children,
'Thanks fam' for helping me draw closer to the Lover of my soul.
So, l was babysitting
And today was different.
We got to play with a different toy than we usually get to.
Well, we got the toy because we needed to be distracted
while something that was in our way was being handled.
Then in a moment our toy had to be taken away
And boom- Tantrum!!!
l sat there watching my little buddy struggle through.Threats and moments in time out did not work at all,
All we wanted was our toy.
Despite many people trying to explain the reason why they got given the toy for a moment,
We pushed, rolled over, screamed and shoved for the toy- tantrum!
Just like that l was reminded of how l pray for something,
And while God is busy removing all the destructions
to help me reach my goals- He gives me a toy.
l enjoy playing with it...
And when my answer is ready
And God says its time...
l scream and shout
l yell, l get mad
And through it all God sits there calm whispering "come now child"
"Come now child. You called me. It is time."
"Call my name
And l will answer
All you need
It's here inside My arms
Just breathe
And you'll be safe and Sound with Me" - Steffany Grretzinger
Tantrums- When we pray and are waiting,
Let us not settle for what we receive in the moment,
It is just a stepping stone.
Have you like me been tired lately
Forgotten what we prayed for
And now that it is here
We fight it?
Even after a while, the child comes to a realization
They see the bigger picture!
