of dreams, donuts, and cherry blossoms


For my Zoe who just turned 13. always, my song for you. 

................................

🎵 Dream a little dream of me 🌸

Stars shining bright above youNight breezes seem to whisper "I love you"Birds singing in the sycamore treeDream a little dream of me
Say "Night-ie night" and kiss meJust hold me tight and tell me you'll miss meWhile I'm alone and blue as can beDream a little dream of me
Stars fading but I linger on, dearStill craving your kissI'm longing to linger till dawn, dearJust saying this
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find youSweet dreams that leave all worries behind youBut in your dreams whatever they beDream a little dream of me
Stars fading but I linger on, dearStill craving your kissI'm longing to linger till dawn, dearJust saying thisSweet dreams till sunbeams find youSweet dreams that leave all worries behind youBut in your dreams whatever they beDream a little dream of me.






For Daddy God has a dream, and His dream is you, Zoe.


Credits to our beloved Rock Kidz Teacher Ellie for the beautifully written nuggets i've peppered this post with, her heart-notes from a sharing by our youth pastor, Pastor Daniel.

 

Zoe, Daddy God's promise for you:
14 For this reason I kneel before the Father, 
15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. 
16 I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 
17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 
18 may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, 
19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.  Eph 3:17-19
