I've tried to instill in my grown children that one of their daddy's life-values is "Keeping in Touch". As they get older and have lives of their own, certainly I do not wish to cramp their style, however, just hearing from them through whatever form of communication they choose means the world to me.
As I was thinking on these things today, I sensed my Father God saying that "Keeping in Touch" is one of His life-values, too. And how do I know if I am "Keeping in Touch" with Him or not? My prayer life is the leading indicator.
So, as I thought of my grown kids "Keeping in Touch" with me, their earthly daddy, I found myself praying that we as His children (yes, their daddy, as well as my son and my daughter) would all be especially passionate about "Keeping in Touch" with our Heavenly Daddy Father God.
"Keeping in Touch" was surely initially Father God's idea. After all He gave us these three words in His Holy Love Letter: Pray without ceasing. -- 1 Thess. 5:17 (NKJV). Sounds an awful lot like "Keeping in Touch" to me. And "Keeping in Touch" must mean the world to Him, too. (Simply read John 3:16-17 for proof of that.)
IF MY PEOPLE... WILL? I WILL! God's Promise in 2 Chron. 7:14.
Grateful

Yes. It was God's idea.
You speak as a loving parent, for sure.
Parenting is for a lifetime. Like the children's book says: "I'll love you forever. I'll like you for always. As long as I'm living, my baby you'll be." :-)
