God Sets the Lonely in Families.


So here's the plan: Grow up, get married, and have kids. But how many? Boys or girls? There are sooo many choices. And since, of course, we have complete control over what we get, let's pick! Hmm...nineteen kids all with names starting with the letter J, one boy and one girl, a car full of little football players, a buncha barbie dolls with one boy to keep the sanity...ahhh the possibilities are endless.

Now obviously God is the one up in heaven picking out each of our little families. I can just picture him up in heaven, with little paper dolls, creating the perfect little families for us. And while we all wish we had complete control, srsly...it's probably better that we don't! God's the one that created us. He knows the desires of our heart, and what we want, even more than we do! That's why he conjured up the idea of families in the first place. He knows that we all need people around us to love or we would always feel alone.

"God sets the lonely in families." Psalm 68:6
