You Are Special

Tonight John Sam and I were reading Max Lucado's book You Are Special. It's about wooden people called Wemmicks who go around giving each other stars for being "good" and dots for being "bad." As John Sam read the story aloud, I just watched his face.

When we got to the part about Punchinello going to see Eli, the woodcarver, the story says that Eli calls Punchinello's name in a deep, strong voice.

"That's God," said John Samuel. Only 8 years old, and already he knew--without my even explaining it to him.

Wow, just wow.

And oh, how I needed to hear that today!! :)
