Korie Robertson: ‘Grateful For The Little Children In My Life’
By Movieguide® Contributor
DUCK DYNASTY star Korie Robertson recently shared the touching reason why one room in her house has become her favorite.
Robertson shared a series of pictures of her sunny living room, filled with books and toys.
“Picking up this room today and thinking about how it has become my favorite room in the house…especially when the grandkids have filled it with imagination and play,” she wrote in the caption.
She continued, “I love this quote by Albert Einstein, ‘He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed.’ Grateful for the little children in my life who remind me to pause in awe and wonder.”
“This life is a gift. Don’t miss it,” she wrote.
Robertson then concluded her caption with Matthew 19:13-14:
“Then people brought little children to Jesus for him to place his hands on them and pray for them. But the disciples rebuked them. Jesus said, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.’”
Robertson frequently shares heartfelt messages on Instagram. Movieguide® previously reported:
DUCK DYNASTY’s Korie Robertson is reflecting on what it’s like to watch her children grow up and enter new phases of their lives in a touching Instagram post.
“This season of life is full of new chapters!” she captioned a photo of herself with son Willie. “Now that I have a few more years behind me, it seems like the end of your teens and early 20’s are full of really short chapters…new school, new semester, new city, new roomate, new friends, a new major, new apartment, new job, new city, perhaps marriage, another move, maybe kids…all of this happens in a relatively short period of your life. It’s kind of crazy actually!”
Her caption continued:
Watching ours experience these chapters of their life right now and they are whizzing by! I know though in the moment it doesn’t always feel this way. When you’re in the middle of it, it can feel long, never-ending even, the unknowing of what’s next, the uncertainty of the length of this chapter before you “get to” move on to the next can be unsettling.
As I have been thinking about this lately and praying about this for our own kids, I just want to encourage you to:
1-lay all of your worries, fears, questions, at God’s feet. Worrying doesn’t add a thing to your life. He is the one who has numbered your days, and HIS WAYS ways are so much better than ours!
2-Be PRESENT exactly where you are and be GRATEFUL for this moment. In whatever stage you find yourself, God is there. He will never leave you, and you certainly aren’t going to miss him…He’s everywhere, and He promises to be with you!
Trusting in Him, one day you will look back and see all of what you thought were detours, all of the chapters that were a struggle, that seemed long and full of the hard, were actually guidance, growth, learning, protection, maybe even gifts.
I’m getting to watch my kids do this and it’s the greatest blessing!
Robertson has endeavored to raise her children with a godly worldview, inspiring to seek the Lord in their own lives.
