Yesterday my son was playing with his Mega Blocks and said “I’m going to make you a robot”. He then proceeded to put together a number of blocks forming a simple rectangle two wide and five high. When he handed it to me, I couldn’t have been more proud. No one else would have been able to guess that it was a robot. But it didn’t matter. I knew my son’s heart was to make me a robot for me. And it was so special to me.
In that moment I experienced a love that I knew was not of my doing. At the same time I realised that my Heavenly Father isn’t looking at my outward performance, but instead he sees my heart. And a heart that longs to be with him and give to him brings him tremendous joy. Just as it did for me.
My son and I spent the next 30 minutes playing robots. And it’s still brings a smile to my face just thinking about it.
