Learned A Biblical Perspective at Disney World.....

I know you are probably looking at this title and thinking this might sound crazy, but please stay with me and I will share what I am talking about.  We recently took our little 2 year old to Disney World and had the most wonderful day.  We did things that were catered to him, and made sure he was having the best time.  We loved seeing him view Disney World through his eyes.  We were smiling ear to ear the entire time! Well towards the end we wanted to make sure that he got the chance to see Mickey Mouse in person because Mickey is his favorite.  So we went, and of course the line was about 10 minutes long, so that was tough for him.  Trying to tell a 2 year old to wait, and hold on when he can see Mickey Mouse 5 feet away was very hard to do.  Well eventually it was his turn and he was able to meet Mickey face to face!!! This is a HUGE moment :)  I want to explain this part VERY slow, because this is the reason for this post.  He saw Mickey and knew that Mickey was looking right at him.  Mickey then got down on one knee and opened up his arms.  Gabe forgot all about the tantrum he just threw earlier while waiting, and literally ran full speed to Mickey.  Gabe could NOT take his eyes off of Mickey.  His jaw was open the whole time, and he kept smiling.  He was giving Mickey high five's, lot's of hugs, and even let Mickey play with his car.  I was on the side watching all of this happen, and was speechless because I have never seen Gabe act like this, in this way.  He was speechless, and just wide eyed, and mouth left open.  Of course we got lot's of pictures and as we were about to leave, I pick up Gabe and was carrying him and looking at him, and I see his eyes get big again, and mouth open again.  I turn around and Mickey was behind me, and he was waving bye to Gabriel, and you could tell that Gabriel could not believe that Mickey knew who he was and was waving goodbye just to him.  Ok so let me get to the point.......
  My son just demonstrated a biblical principle here, and I had to write about it.  Gabe loves Mickey Mouse, he gets excited every time he sees him on T.V, he loves the clothes, songs, toys, etc.  Here he got to see him in person, and Mickey made him see how special Gabe was, and made time for him.  It was Mickey and Gabe in that room and nobody else, when they were together.  It is the same with Jesus.  Jesus is our everything.  We get excited when we hear his name, we love everything he represents, we are waiting for his return and cannot wait to see his face.  When we do see Jesus, we will be eyes wide opened and jaws hanging open.  We would be in awe, because we cannot believe that Jesus wants to make time for us.  Imagine, you are walking around a corner and see Jesus just standing there, and all of a sudden he looks at you, and drops to his knees and opens up his arms to you.  How fast would you run? Could you take your eyes off of him?  You would enjoy EVERY minute spent with him, and just want to take it all in.  Anything you were struggling with before, would be forgotten.  This is real life.  This is the real relationship you can have with Jesus.  You can run into his arms and crawl up into his lap and just be a kid.  I am probably the only person that can go to Disney World and see an actual biblical perspective while in the park, but maybe the Holy Spirit made me see it that way, so It would click with one person who would come to know the Lord.  If you don't have that type of relationship with Jesus, then you are missing out.  You are missing out on what he died for you to have.  So the way Gabe acted really showed me how eager we should be to spend time with Jesus, and how we would act when we see Jesus.  It was so beautiful to see in person!!
