I wrote this in my journal on July 11, 1995: In the midst of
a storms in our life, our 5 year old daughter Deena asked, Mommy is Jesus
here? I answered, "Yes!" She saw that her dad and I were struggling
emotionally and asked, "Where?" I replied, "Deena, pretend you are mommy
and daddy okay? Now I will be the part of Jesus." I then picked her up
in my arms like a baby and carried her around the room. She giggled!
Later in the car, she asked, "Mommy, is Jesus still carrying us in the car?" I said, "Yes, He is!" Deena replied, "I like that." I asked her why and she answered, "because it just feels good."
The Lord is my keeper......Psalm 121:5a
Even though our little girl could see that her mom and dad were struggling, I was able to reassure her that we were trusting God to carry us through this storm and all life's storms in our future.
This picture was taken of my youngest daughter Deena around 1995 when we were at Chucky Cheese.
