Traveling

When I travel I love to people watch. So interesting. I love to listen in on conversations that I'm not supposed to hear. They tell so much about a person. It's the secret conversations that unveil our hearts.

Over this last weekend I got to hang out with my kids in Alabama (their new home). I hate them being so far away but it's life right now. While visiting them I got to hear and watch their competition pieces for the National A/G Youth Fine Arts competition. For those of you that don't know...it's kinda like a Christian American Idol of sorts. Except it's been happening alot longer than AI. I competed in it when I was a kid...that tells you how long it's been!!

While standing to wait to enter a competition room I overheard a group of people talking about another church. Only I was surprised to hear what they were saying. Instead of degrading the other competition they were actually hoping that the other teams did well. What a refreshing thing. In a world where we climb on each other to get ahead it was great to hear (and see) God's heart.

He is always speaking the best about us.
