To see His face...

This is one of my favorite pictures. The reason is because it shows a child looking into the eyes of the Savior. It makes me think of how the child isn't looking away in shame or fear. I believe that God would have us have confidence in ourselves as well as Him. We can feel confident when we know deep down if how we are living is the right way to live, without the slightest hint of excuse or justification to ourselves. Some people think God is interested in reiterating His majesty and supreme authority over all of His children. I would think that all of those attributes in Him would speak for themselves in His glory. I believe He is concerned with saving and helping His children, us, to progress as far as we are willing.
