Same Difference

Traveling recently with my 2 year old grandson opened my eyes to many new adventures!  One most notable event occurred at a rest stop where we were just trying to get out some wiggles.

Sitting outside, we were approached by another family.  A family who spoke very broken English.  A mom and her 2 children….Similar to my daughter and her children, but obviously quite different….Until we look at life through the pure and simple eyes and heart of a 2 year old.  The children met.  Face to face.  Eyeing each other up.  “Crocs!” squealed my grandson.  Yes, the other children had on crocs – just like he did!  My grandson didn’t see or hear the MANY differences between the children.  His innocent, unscarred perspective saw only what the kids had in common.

Wow!  What we could learn about God’s kind of love from children!

“How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity!”  Psalm 133:1
