December 3

Isaac did the scripture reading at church this morning.

He strode up to the front, took the mic, said "hello" in a whimsical tone that drew a smile from me and amusement from some members of the congregation, and read what was a rather long excerpt from 2 Corinthians.

It didn't take long, but I was so proud of him for getting up there and doing it. And I was so heartened to hear the conviction in his voice as, upon finishing the reading, he confidently declared "THIS is the Word of God." 

He's a good kid. And I am a blessed mom.
