My love is endearing.
Mark 10:13-16
13 One day some parents brought their children to Jesus so he could touch and bless them. But the disciples scolded the parents for bothering him. 14 When Jesus saw what was happening, he was angry with his disciples. He said to them, “Let the children come to me. Don’t stop them! For the Kingdom of God belongs to those who are like these children. 15 I tell you the truth, anyone who doesn’t receive the Kingdom of God like a child will never enter it.” 16 Then he took the children in his arms and placed his hands on their heads and blessed them. NLT

You need not be concerned about some hyper-religious protocol when you come to Me. For in My presence is fullness of joy, and at My right hand are pleasures forevermore. I love it when you run boldly into My arms, just like little children did when My beloved Son invited them to come.
In the same way that Jesus took these little ones up in His arms and blessed them, I love taking you up close to My heart to bless you, too. So I don't want you ever to feel insecure or uncertain when you approach Me. For though the angels shield their eyes from My glory, My children have unrestricted access to My throne room day or night.
So come to Me today with the beautiful simplicity of a childlike heart, and let My endearing love embrace you and remind you once again just how important you are to Me.
