Five Minute Friday: Catch

So my five minutes start with this thought…
As a little girl, my daddy taught me how to catch and throw a ball…He made it seem so easy but it took work and practice. Now as a mother and a wife I find myself “catching” things all the time. I catch the pacifier as my son spits it out, the keys my husband tosses me so I can unlock the car door, etc…

But the thing that stand out the most to me is how often my Heavenly Father “catches” me. How often I fall and fail and He is always there to pick me up. He is the one who helps me through each day and who is the perfect example of always being there.

My son will soon be walking and I will have to be ready to catch him…I just hope I can do even half as good as the Lord does for me.

    I love the thought of God catching us when we fall. He is a loving Father and this is a great reminder. Blessings!

    Well, you’ll fail plenty at that, but the GOOD NEWS is… God’s got you in that, too. :D (Says the mom of 5 who mostly feels like a walking disaster. ahhh… I laugh and cry at that.) Praise the LORD for Grace!
