Little Steps: Your daughter took very
little steps.
She thought they were too small.
She thought they were too petty.
But these little steps eventually moved her
away from You, little by little.
These little steps became big enough to
keep her in a distance wherein she could hardly hear what You say.
These little steps took her in a distance
far enough for her not to see You direct her steps, far enough to lead her
astray.
Those little steps that she took led her to
tread the wrong way at the crossroads.
She has been away, she is struggling to
find her way back.
She realized that she lost her way in a
familiar place. She has been lost here. And her little steps took her to be
lost in the same place again.
Then, Your daughter breaks down and cries.
She misses You. She longs for You.
At her initial cry of repentance, her
initial cry to go back, right there and then, Grace and Mercy came to meet her.
To lead her back to You.
And when she saw You, at that corner where
she left You, where her little steps started taking her far, she started to run
to You. Only, You ran so fast, faster than her, even faster than the fastest
athlete, just to take her in Your arms. In a couple of
seconds, You held her in your arms, safe in Your embrace. Your Giant love was
relentless to take her back from wherever her little steps took her.
