"Papa's Presence"

 A few weeks during worship I was holding my grandson and we were having a great time. His Mom decided that it was time for him to go on to the nursery so that Papa could do what he is suppose to do on Sunday mornings.... A few steps away and he was crawling over her shoulder, yelling for Papa!!!My grandchildren think I am awesome! Why? Because they know that when they are with me they are the center of the world. They receive my undivided attention! It is my goal to see to it that they get everything they want and that they have fun. When they are with me it is guaranteed pleasure!!!!Suddenly I heard the words of the Psalmist, "In His Presence is fullness of joy and at His right hand are pleasures forever more." (16:11) Bubba knows that in my presence he will have "joy and pleasure," he wants to be with me....I wonder how many of us scream if someone attempts to remove us from the Presence of the Lord?
