Shouldn't Christians be the happiest people on this earth? There are so many days that I feel so blessed just to be loved and accepted by my Savior that I want to shout, to dance, to cry....I am happy and I want others to know it. My Lily is filled with so much joy and energy and she is constantly going through her day singing, clapping and praising. I have to tell you, it is contagious! I want that attitude!

O n the way to school one morning my little girl asked, "Daddy, are we feeding the homeless people tonight?" She was referring to Bread of Life, a meal we serve to our struggling neighbors, most of whom are the working poor. Some of them are homeless. She didn't intend to label anyone. She was just using a reference she had heard before. She enjoys serving our guests who come to eat. A flood of emotions came over me while she sat waiting for an answer. Something about it seemed wrong. I imagined several of them sitting in the car with us and I wondered what they would think about such a label. Then I thought about Jesus and the people he chose to hang out with. What would he call them? "Daddy?" "Yes, Baby?" "Did you hear me?" "Yes, Baby, I heard you." "Well?" "Well, Honey, tonight we'll be eating with friends."

Wow Dad, look at what God is doing! Mark Yaconelli tells a story about his contemplative four year old. Mark describes himself as someone who is always focusing on the end-point. The daily walk to school would find his child filled with wonder at the world around him, the birds and the trees down to a half eaten yogurt cup dumped on the sidewalk. Mesmerized by the cup, and especially the mold in it, he bends down to pick it up, hoping to add it to his collection. He is interrupted by warnings from dad about not picking up trash off the sidewalk and how they really need to get to school on time. “Hurry up son, let’s go.”
