Day Four- Short and sweet

1 John 1:1
[ The Word of Life ] That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched—this we proclaim concerning the Word of life.

 We see things and hear things everyday.  We touch people physically and emotionally.  This morning the love of my life, Jacob, heard Wyatt stirring in his room.  Jacob jumped out of bed to go get him and say good morning and as I was still rubbing the sleep out of my eyes I heard the sweetest sound coming from Wyatt's room: Jacob was reading Wyatt a story.  I roused myself up a minute later to wash my face and as I passed Wyatt's room I saw Jacob laying in the pint-sized toddler bed reading Wyatt a story.  This touched my heart, made my soul melt with love.
Do you remember the last time God touched you?  We see and touch things daily but we often take for granted or forget to give thanks when God reaches down and touches us.  We forget that touch is more than just a physical thing, it has a whole other level with emotional ties.  So after this morning I want to thank God for reminding me that touch goes beyond the physical and is centered with him.  That through our daily actions he brings about a deep emotional touch.  Today I say touch is a word of life, a great gift given from above.
