One attribute that I would pray the Lord writes on my children's hearts is ministering to other's needs.   I am reminded of what Jesus said, "What you do to the least of these, you have done to me." 

 The homeschool moms in our homeschool group feel the same and one of the moms planned a very sweet project for us.  We met at our local library and the children all made happy, cheerful cards.  The children later will deliver these precious little cards to the elderly at our local nursing home.  What a brilliant idea to teach our children humility and caring for the elderly in our community.  We didn't tell the children what to write in the cards but I noticed quietly that a majority of the cards mentioned God and the children loving them.  These are children making cards for total strangers but felt led to extend the love that they know Christ has for them.  It brings tears to my eyes even now. 

Thank you Lord for the sweet, unfiltered love that our children have for others.

See if you can read what her card says at the bottom?!   "God loves you so much"

I am so blessed by her!
