BIG NUMBERS

Maddy, 4, threw back her head and screamed out some numbers:

‘’TWO!!!”

‘’THREE!!!”

‘’ELEVEN-TEEN!!!’’

I mean, the floor shook and the drywall cracked. ‘’MADDY!’’ I commanded. ‘’Quiet down! Why are you yelling so loud?’’

‘’I was just trying to make big numbers, Mom,’’ she answered.

She must’ve heard some post-election report on TV about ‘’big numbers’’ for the candidates.

Somebody should’ve told those high-paid political consultants: THAT’S how you make your numbers big.

Prayer request: We lift up a wonderful young man named Scott, who has been having some disturbing heart rhythms and high blood pressure. He has always been the healthy one, and his brother’s the one with the serious congenital heart problem. Their mom wants Scott to have an echocardiogram to check for structural abnormalities. Father, we want Scott to have the wisest medical team possible, and to have this solved soon. We plead the Blood over their fear, in Jesus’ Name. (Psalm 46:2)
