"Your Descendants Will Love the LORD!"

"And the Lord your God will circumcise your heart and the heart of your descendants, to love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, that you may live." -- Deuteronomy 30:6

One of the deepest desires of my heart is to see every single one of my descendants enjoying God eternally. Given the context for the above verse, God is promising His people that, if they wholeheartedly repent and obey His commandments, He will grant hearts and souls of love and life to them and their descendants. ~~ What an awesome (conditional) promise!

Incognito

Ha! That was fun.  ~  You other Dads have done it, too, right?  As I saw my 2-yr-old about to enter my office, I threw on a disguise, and he looked at me as if to say, "Umm, I think I know you, but I'm not sure I want you to get very close ...."   He was bold enough to shake my hand; and then when I pulled off the mask, he & I both laughed.

Does God do that, too, sometimes?  Something crazy in your life makes you wonder, "Is God doing this?  Or am I just the victim from some silly decision I made somewhere?"  Then when everything works out in some surprising way, God pulls off the disguise, and we both laugh.
