In the Words of a Child

Every night we sit down to dinner as a family and ask our son to say the blessing. In his cute, three-year-old voice he says "God great, God good, thank you food Amen." Now he does not fully understand why we pray and I'm not even sure he understands the concept of God and Jesus just yet. After all, just a few months ago he went down the halls of our church yelling "Oh Jesus!" to anyone passing by. The important thing is that we are laying the foundation. Imagine if you said every day God is great and God is good. His little prayer at dinner time reminds us each time of how wonderful God is to us and all of the many blessings we have in our lives. We should wake up every morning thanking God for being great and good to us. Amen.
