This morning I was awakened by the sound of Hannah coming into our room cheerfully saying, "Breakfast is served!" She had lovingly prepared scrambled eggs and toast for us, along with juice and toppings for our toast.
Later when we went to Westwinds, Dave talked about the spiritual gift of serving, expressing it as "seeing value in the most simple things."
Hannah truly has this gift, along with a huge dose of compassion. She is one of the most compassionate people I know.
It's so cool to be able to see God's gift in her already and to watch her use that gift to make the world a better place. I know she made our day brighter with that sweet act first thing this morning!
Her act and Dave's talk reminded me that God's gifts are meant to be used, so this week I'm going to try to follow my daughter's example and bring some joy to others every day in "the most simple things."
Stan, Suzanne, Jessie, Hannah, and Charlie (our dog)...but Suz is doing all the talking here....
