My little girl has been crawling for over a month now but this week she has discovered something new: Climbing Up Stairs. The first time she did it, I was upstairs and my hubby hollered at me to come down, quick! I almost cried when I saw her climbing towards me with the biggest grin on her face. Now, a week later, though I'm still impressed, worry has set in. We don't have baby gates up yet, because of our railing, my hubby is having to make our baby gates and they aren't finished yet. This means that I've had to keep a closer eye on our little crawler more than normal.
I was thinking about the fears I've been entertaining about my princess while I was reading my devotional. Today I read about God's protection. Much like I guide Ariah so that she can practice climbing without falling, God guides our steps. We are able to run into a new experience, but it will always work out better if we ask for God's direction. He has an amazing plan for our lives if we only listen for His guidance. Otherwise, we will constantly fall down the stairs. Thankfully, God not only guides us up the stairs, but waits at the bottom to catch us if we fall.
