Personal Reflections on God's Loving Mercy

Dear Daddy,

A great morning Daddy to do personal reflections on my life.

Last night was one of the first experiences that I had, where I was the one who took of care of Baby Elisha until early morning.

Honestly, it was very tiring and frustrating at the same time. Tiring because, the entire night she would just sleep for a few minutes and then wake up. I think Elisha is the kind of Baby that wants to be carried while she sleeps. Or maybe because she prefers sleeping in the morning rather than during evenings.

Frustrating because, I am able to let her sleep while I am carrying her but once I put her down she wakes up again. While carrying her I sing her a song and dance dizzy steps to make her sleepy. Her eyes easily get drowsy, but again when I put her to bed she wakes up again.

But the entire night got me tired but whenever I see her angelic face and her “expensive” smile, all my frustrations seem to disappear. I guess that’s just how love is.

Now I wonder, how long have you been carrying me? Dancing me around and singing to me until I feel sleepy with your love Daddy. Probably more than a 100,000 times.

As I am now a father myself, I can really see how much you love me. How much you have cared for me.

I know my words are not enough Daddy, but I thank you with all the patience and love you given me. In fact the right for your love for me is mercy.

I love you so much Daddy, with all the best I can be.

Amen.
