Immediate Love

It's awesome to think about how God's love can so easily be reflected...even to people we've first met.

There are many examples of Jesus doing this...to the people he healed, to the woman at the well, etc.

I had to think of this when Cole was born. Kristy and I were experiencing the emotion of the baby being born, and the excitement of finding out if the baby was going to be a boy or girl. However, the minute we saw Cole, we had immediate love for him. It wasn't something we needed to think about, process, analyze....it was "Wow! Our child....he's precious and we love him".

You have to think that just a small picture of God's love for us... "not because of who I am, but because of what you've done, not because of what I've done, but because of who you are..."
