Here we go! Getting packed, and making sure everything is set. Every night, before bed I give my kids a blessing on their forehead. "God Bless you all night long, in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen.", then I make the sign of the Cross, kiss my hand and smack them in the head so the kiss sticks. It's a weird tradition, but they don't go to bed without it.
So, how will they sleep while I'm gone? I make them paper blessings for when I'm gone. It says the same words, and has my lipstick kiss on the paper. Paper blessings, for when I can't bless them in person.
Maybe that's what the Bible is. Go read your paper blessing, and know you are loved...and Blessed.
Years ago I told God I would blog whatever he'd like me to say for Lent. Those blogs are still here, along with a few others. I hope He uses my words to abundantly bless you, and fill you with LOVE!!!
