Shut Out The World and Trust

My day has been intense and near non-stop already. My feet hit the ground and it's been "on" ever since; my children turned their switch on before their feet even hit the hardwoods. AS I finally sat down to embrace some peace, I felt so thankful to God for the gift of breastfeeding - for both baby and myself. For me, it's a 'have to sit down and be still' time. It is also a time to do one of the most cherished of all things in this entire crazy world - hold a baby. Oh bliss. A chunky, soft, sweet form of heaven on earth...in my arms, turning to me for comfort and food and trust (that what he needs will be there every time he turns to me for it). A baby is thrust into this world from a sacred, secret place and then what? What on earth do they do once in this world? Here's a great idea: be held closely in love by the arms of the sweet person who carried him while he was made. Then partake of the very thing that feeds and nourishes him that is always there in ABUNDANT SUPPLY. Is this not a picture provided for us to see how we can do the same with our "supplier," our "nourisher?" As a baby physically turns away from the world and takes what it needs for the moment, nestled at the breast, so do we do the same thing within ourselves as we turn into Yahweh's Mighty Wings! It's a phenomenon. Mom learns to trust too in this process; she learns that the supply will keep coming over and over once signaled. No fear, no worry - just trust :) Can you think of a better way to learn trust? Maybe you could come up with one, but I can't see how it would be any sweeter.
