Mini-me

[My disclaimer: I truly enjoy motherhood...and in this career...it's not about me.] Now, with that said, as a young adult, I would frequently tell my friends that I desired to have a "mini-me." You know, a child who was just like me, just a younger, smaller version. I thought it was a funny, even a cute request. Not knowing the power of my words...it's years later and I now have a 5 year-old who has somehow developed into...well...you guessed it...my "mini-me." It's so precious; she loves me soooo much. She watches my every move and mimics me. She repeats my every word. Looking at her is like looking at a mirror and seeing my reflection. Now I understand why God said that it takes faith to please Him (Hebrews 11:6). God desires that we mimic His every word and His every action. If our Daddy used faith to create everything, would it not please Him that we use faith to create, to bring heaven into the earth. Having grown up a little in my spiritual walk with the Lord, I now desire that my children develop into a mini-He...God that is. It is written in Psalm 82:6 Amplified, "I said, You are gods; indeed, all of you are children of the Most High." I simply desire that my little babies mature into their Father Almighty...thinking like Him...speaking like Him...enjoying Heaven like Him, even while they are living in the earth. Until the next MM... In Christ's Love, Warrior-Priest-Queen Miriam
