Seated in His Lap

Three consecutive evenings this week between 6 & 9 PM we've had power interruptions. That's often  the time we have supper cooking,  showers/baths and bonding time. Its thrown us off guard but we've made the best of candlelight evenings and take out or sandwiches.
Bed time has been moved much earlier and there's real bonding as all electronics are dead. Phones, tablets  included.  We have just us.  Little Fadhili found my lap and plonked his lovely self there. I had little option but to rock him to sleep in absolute silence. I can absorb his smell and hear his breathing. He can hear my heart beat he knows intimately.

God in all His splendour and power and holiness sits in His throne.  Hes not dashing madly about clucking about dishes and planting and missing socks and fleas on the dog. He's seated o  His throne.

His lap is available 24/7 for us
His loving arms ready to wrap us
His heart beats for us
We are His own
He is our Father

In the silence, in the darkness, in the stillness He awaits us
