“Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise – the fruit of lips that confess his name” (Hebrews 13:15).
Our daughter Val and her family were getting ready to go home. They had spent Halloween evening with us and we had a lot of fun. My husband set up a game of croquet downstairs (we used the legs of the chairs in place of the wire hoops), we watched fireworks and had freshly baked brownies with hot chocolate.
They were ready to go when Bronson, my two-year old grandson, announced,
“My daddy is a man.”
The statement seemed to come right out of the blue but he communicated much more than the words he spoke. His words and the way he said them said, “I love daddy. I think my daddy is wonderful! I’m so proud of my dad. I am secure and happy because I have a good dad. My daddy is strong and My daddy loves me.” Yes, he said all these things and more when he looked at us and said, “My daddy is a man.”

Father, give us the grace to communicate to others how very much You love us and how wonderful we think You are. Thank You so much for caring about us. Amen.
