July 21

I always get a little choked up during the annual Sunday morning VBS celebration service, and this year did not deviate from that norm.

It fills my cup to watch the kids singing the songs and doing the dances. Their enthusiasm and joy is radiant and it touches me in a way that I can't describe adequately. It's just precious on a soul-deep level. Jesus said to let the little children come to Him, and when they do, things happen. Big things.

And it was also precious and touching when I looked just to my right and saw Isaac smiling and mouthing the words to the songs right along with the campers on stage. 

It was all beautiful. And I'm grateful that I had the gift of being there to see and feel it all.
