Look at Me!

During a conversation with my cousin Alicia, she explained to me how her 3-year old daughter commanded her attention during conversation. You know, all those questions you answer "Uh huh" to without even looking at them! It was then I thought, "Yep, her and my 4-year old are definitely related."
Then, I came to a weekend marriage retreat to hear that our children aren't the only little ones who respond that way. It is normal for a small child to want you to 'look at them' during a conversation with them; it is just as important to them as it is to us.
I then found myself thinking about how many times God has to tell me to do something and I'm saying, "Uh huh" and He finally gets tired of my lack of attention and says, "Look at me!"

"I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth." Psalm 121:1-2
