[this was taken in mexico on a mission trip in june]
there is something very special about this picture that i took. as you can tell theres a dad and his daughter standing together.
it seems like a normal picture right?
wrong.
this little girl is mentally challenged and does not have that much longer to live.
as i looked up and towards the father when taking the pic he had so much pride and joy in his eyes that it just broke my heart. even though his daughter is special needs, he doesnt have any money to help her, and they live in poverty that still doesnt stop his love for his daughter.
God is like that.
God doesnt care if you are special needs, black, white, red, brown, yellow, fat, skinny, tall, short, smart, stupid, ugly, even beautiful. God has so much joy for you as His child.
just like that father has that pride and joy with his daughter, God is so proud of you that He only made one of you that is unique and beautiful.
God is like a father who just saw his son or daughter for the first time and is too happy for words.
God loves you and wants to be close to you and be your father.
will you let Him be your heavenly father?
God is waiting for you, his child, to come running back into His loving and caring arms.
