Can He See Me Now?

One afternoon in the car, Hudson and I were talking. (How do these conversations always pop up in the car??) The conversation got started by him wanting to wear a hat in church and I told him that it was disrespectful to wear them in church, God wants to see us while we are learning and praising Him. So he then asks me, "Mommy, where is God?" To me, this is easy, but to Hudson, a child, its hard for him to understand. (and like me, he needs everything to be black and white... absolutely NO GRAY AREA!) So here I was trying to explain to him that God is waaaaay up in the heavens, He can see everything, everyone, and all that is happening. He created everything that you see around you, the trees, grass, birds, etc, even you and me. I'm looking at him in the mirror during this converation and hes staring out the window intently and says, "Can He see me now?" and I reply, "Sure can Hudson! He can see and hear you all the time!" Isn't that awesome! We get home from our excursion (whatever random errand that we had to run!), pull into the garage, the door is closed now.... "Can He see me now!?!" Hudson asks... really thinking that since we were inside the garage inside the car still that God totally couldn't see us! "Absolutely Hudson! All the time! He is with us and He can see and hear us!" So as the day goes on, Hudson would sporatically ask me if He could see us, and I would once again give the same answer. (I want him to know, that NO MATTER what, God is ALWAYS with him!) Now the house is calming down, Coley is sound asleep and Hudson and I are about to take a nap in my bed. (now thats some good cuddling!) Hudson gets the covers, scoots down, and pulls the covers waaaay over his head. Nothing can be see of him. We never do this, he always sleeps with his head out. I ask, "Hudson, what are you doing?" Quietly and seriously, he says "Can He see me NOW?" Bless his heart! He was trying to see if there would come a time when God couldn't see him! But you know, what an awesome testimony! Absolutely, NO MATTER WHAT, God is always with us! Whether we are in the car, in the garage, in the house, or even under the covers! (HA!) I'm so amazed at all the things that my Lord has revealed to me through my precious baby! He has taught me so much and Hudson will never know the impact that he has made on his daddy and me.

**A small little side note. Last night, I dreamed that Hudson, my mom, and I were in the car (gees! in the car again!) and Hudson said to us, "Mommy, I want to live for Jesus! I asked Him to be my Savior!" Whoa! I pray that this day will come, sooner rather than much later. To have my children live a life of walking with the Lord is going to be awesome!

So after this blog was posted this morning, I got in my car and all of a sudden, one of my favorite songs came on. God is so amazing! Its amazing how I sat here and posted this blog then He just reaffirmed everything that I said.

Indescribable

From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea

Creation's revealing Your majesty

From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring

Every creature unique in the song that it sings

All exclaiming

Indescribable, uncontainable,

You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.

You are amazing God

All powerful, untamable,

Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim

You are amazing God

Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go

Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow

Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light

Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night

None can fathom

Indescribable, uncontainable,

You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name

You are amazing God

All powerful, untamable,

Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim

You are amazing God

You are amazing God

Indescribable, uncontainable,

You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.

You are amazing God

All powerful, untamable,

Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim

You are amazing God

Indescribable, uncontainable,

You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.

You are amazing God

INCOMPRABLE, unchangeable

You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same

You are amazing God

You are amazing God
