Our joy ~ March 8, 2013

It's "joy post" time!

One thing that has been bringing me so much comfort and joy this week is thinking about how Ezra is such a special little baby. His little life on earth was so powerful. His life was created with a special purpose. Ezra's life points us and so many others to God and His heaven's. His life has given me the chance to share the fulfillment of a life lived as God's child. His life has given Steven and I the jolt to stop, and think about what our lives really look like, and change it to one with an eternal perspective. Many people live long lives, wondering all the while what God's purpose is for them. Ezra has already filled his purpose. He has done everything the Lord required of him, and all in nine little, precious, months. God is so pleased with my little baby, and that brings me great joy!

 
And this is also what our joy looks like this week;
 


Watching Levi try on mommy's shoes.
 
He's been really into it lately.
 
And isn't the robe a nice touch?
 

Watching Levi pretend to cut his food and then put it in the pot to cook!
I guess he really is watching me.
He's so smart!

Watching my boys love each other.

Levi went to get Ezra's picture and set it down next to him while he played drums.
Ah, he is such a good big brother!

Watching Levi give Ezra's picture a kiss is some of the most precious joy I have had yet.
 
God fills our life with so much joy from his blessings, even in the midst of tragedy.
We just have to remember to come to Him, and tell Him we are grateful.
 
What are is your joy from this week?
Please feel free to share in the comments.
 
Love,
Emma
