Hannah is playing softball this fall. She has gotten better and better with each game and practice. In fact, last weekend she received the gameball. She had 2 homeruns (it is coach pitch and there were overthrows to the bases), then her 3rd at bat she got a triple that resulted in her making the winning run. Plus she gort a few balls while in the outfield. Her coach is great and all the girls on the team are nice. Hannah seems to be having a great time!
"Mothers and Fathers, when you give your tiny infant a bath, you are washing God's baby. Pause a moment in your busy day and look up to heaven. When you minister to that youngster, can you imagine God smiling down on you? When you fix that hungry six-year-old a peanut butter sandwich, you are feeding one of God's children. Listen carefully - you may hear God laughing in pleasure. When you hug an adolescent whom others have teased mercilessly at school, you are comforting God's teenager. Are those God's tears dampening your shoulder?
In the process of caring and loving, you bring God great pleasure. At that very moment you become his provision, his comfort, his passion... you make daily sacrifices to love this child. Your heavenly Father doesn't miss a second of this sacrifice. He sees it all. He cries with you and he laughs with you and he takes great joy in the good work you are doing."
