Let The Little Children Come To Me: Gather
As I call them, they come.
My little flock of five.
They gather around me.
From the biggest to the littlest they find safety, comfort and assurance
in my apron. They wrap themselves around my arms and legs.
My little flock of five. They gather.
Brings to mind the image of Jesus saying,
“Let the little children come to me and hinder them not
for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to such as these”.
So glad today that this is my heart’s position. So glad today that my thoughts
have come into alignment with His thoughts and I too have welcomed
the little children to come to me.
In the hem of my apron they find love.
In the folds of my skirt they find safety and security.
As they gather, I see a vision of my future.
They’ve left home but return with spouses and children of their own.
They gather ‘round the table to a piping hot spread lying before them.
My little flock now has their own little flock.
My children are like olive trees as they gather around the table.
I am blessed!
As always, it is my prayer that you’ve been Inspired To Live Fully!

Helen,
New friend I just left your site and literally my heart is heavy. I will surrender the heaviness and place it on the altar as I pray for you. I celebrate though in know we overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony. Our posts are your written testimony and I pray with each key stroke you are being healed. So happy to connect with u. Mmm. Sweet Jesus. So happy your community is rallying around you with love and support.
