I truly believe that every little empath loved Frog and Toad! 🥹
I loved them so much as a little girl. I wanted to have a friend like they had in each other. One of my favorite stories in their set of books was called “Alone.”
In the story, Frog left a note on Toad’s door letting him know that he wanted to be alone. And you know what Toad said?
“Why would Frog want to be alone when he has me as a friend?”
So Toad went and sought after Frog. He found him sitting on a rock by the pond.
It reminded me then of how much I wanted a friend. And now, it reminds me of how Jesus searches for us.
It reminds me of how we are meant to be friends for each other, too. Even when your friend wants to be alone and hide, wants to isolate and cry where no one can see, we are meant to seek them out and hold their hand through that time.
Like Frog sat on that rock, we should sit on the promise that we are loved and sought after.
That’s one of the things I’ve carried with me ever since.
You are not only worthy of being sought after, but in case you didn’t know, you’re kind of a big deal, especially to our Father in Heaven.
Someone literally died for you.
His name is Jesus.
And I think that’s pretty comforting, if you ask me. 🫂🤍
