It's early Easter morning. Really early. Like 3am. Genevieve is hungry. But she won't latch. She's just lying there, screaming at me, as I attempt to feed her. Ross is sitting next to me dozing off. I just want to go back to sleep.
"Please, baby girl. Eat. Mommy wants to go back to sleep."
Then a thought enters my mind. A sweet thought. An encouraging thought. A gospel-centered thought.
"Dru-Lynn, I sacrificed my life for you. You can sacrifice a little bit of sleep for her."
My heart is both convicted and elated at the same time. "Yes, Lord. I will sacrifice a little bit of sleep for her. May it glorify and honor you today as we remember all that you gave up for us."
Amen! Happy Easter to you and yours : )
