My one prayer for the 115 VBS kids who would walk through our doors might be the same prayer you have for your children: God, just let them know you’re real. That this isn’t a fairy tale. Give them an experience. A miracle. Anything to prove you’re alive and active today. And he delivered.
Dinner is the one time in our day we are all face to face with no disruptions. It’s our time to see each other clearly—our struggles, our triumphs, our hearts’ longings. We see them as we pray our most pressing needs of the day. And in the thanking for what touches us. We see each other more deeply as we open the tops of our heads and let each other peek in when we answer a question drawn out of a bowl.
