The heart of a child

Back when the power was out from the tornadoes, we decided to take the kids camping at Joe Wheeler since they had power. We had so much fun, and the kids loved everything about it. Especially meeting some new friends there.....

Walker met this group of kids playing ball, so of course he wanted to hang out with them the whole time. He comes back telling me all about this one kid...name, age, school, hometown. He never said anything about baseball or sports of any kind. And me with my travel ball mind at work, I asked Walker if the boy played baseball. And just as serious as he could he said "I didn't ask him if he played. But I did ask him if he was saved and went to church."

Wow! How great is that? My son lives, breathes, and sleeps sports. Yet, all he was worried about with this boy was whether he was saved. I truly wish my heart was like that of a child, my child, at all times. Thank you God for blessing me with Walker and his faithful walk with you.
