The biggest thrill of my life is when my three-year old grandson, Elias came running into my arms to welcome me with a big hug, Friday afternoon. \u201cGrandma, he yelled\u2026 It\u2019s a good thing I was sitting on the couch because we both fell backward as I felt the embrace\u2026I was delighted and a little surprised\u2026but thrilled beyond words\u2026Abram, my son, helped me sit up, but Elias did not let go\u2026in fact he stayed in my arms for quite some time\u2026there is no greater love than the love between a grandchild and grandparent\u2026except God\u2019s love\u2026<\/h6>\n
Then my granddaughter Lydia, being a little shy also welcomed me with a big smile and hug\u2026she\u2019s two and was a little more reserved but the love was just as thrilling.<\/h6>\n
Then there is Ezra, the nine month old. I held him and would say, \u201cI\u2019m gonna get your sugar\u201d and nuzzled his neck with kisses on each side and he would respond by giving me a great big open mouth smile begging for more\u2026<\/h6>\n
And of course my beautiful Granddaughter Esperanza, she\u2019s sweet sixteen and all grown up, but her smile and hug was like winning the billion dollar lottery\u2026and even that doesn\u2019t compare\u2026Love is the most valuable gift in the Universe\u2026it is worth living for and dying for\u2026and that brings me to this\u2026<\/h6>\n
When we connect with Jesus through the Holy Spirit and welcome him with hugs and kisses, running and jumping into his arms he is thrilled beyond words and he loves us right back\u2026If you\u2019ve never experienced that before\u2026let me just say you are missing out on the only thing that matters in this life\u2026Nothing compares to his love, his kisses and his hugs\u2026if you have experienced him than you know exactly what I\u2019m talking about\u2026when He touches you, you are healed in body mind and spirit\u2026you are delivered from bondage and chains\u2026your heart sings a new song and you dance as David danced without restraint or inhibitions\u2026and it doesn\u2019t\u2019 matter who\u2019s watching or not\u2026It doesn\u2019t matter is someone makes fun of you or mocks you\u2026all that matters is that it\u2019s you and Jesus\u2026<\/h6>\n
He\u2019s real\u2026he is really, really real\u2026if you want to know him\u2026if you feel that tugging at your heart\u2026run, don\u2019t walk, jump into His arms and stay there until you are changed, transformed and let him Hug you and kiss you until a big smile covers your face and you know beyond a doubt you are totally and completely loved by Him\u2026<\/h6>\n
He\u2019s waiting\u2026he has come to your house today\u2026he\u2019s sitting on your couch and he wants to show you how very much He loves you.<\/h6>\n
(We love and\u00a0miss you\u00a0Olivia and Carlos and Bryan and Braden)<\/h6>\n
