…of babes thou perfected praise.” (Matt. 21:16)
“Dad, God loves people right?”
“Yes, Arrow, He does.”
“Doesn’t He want people to love each other?”
“Yes son.”
“Then why are people who love God mean to people?”
After a thoughtful pause he spoke before I opened my mouth, “I guess good people sometimes do things that hurt God's heart.”
A tear welled in my heart and grew into a prayer, “God may your love for us turn into love for others. May blessing not cursing flow Out Of The Mouth.”
