We were spending time out at Mattaw the other day, playing with the kids outside, and Cap in the middle of it all, when I got asked a strange question. "what are these?", a little one asked with his hands on Caps arms. I didn't understand and asked, "what his arms?" He said, "no, these." as he moved his little michellion arms back and forth. I then realized what he was referring to. I said, " we'll, we call those fat rolls." he looked confused. I was shocked at the thought of Cap being considered fat. I looked around me at all the children gathered around us and I didn't find any fat rolls. They touched and poked his arms as to somehow straighten his crinkles out, but with no luck. That conversation for some reason has stuck in mind for days now. Especially as I pack morning and afternoon snacks for Cap, because I don't want him to get hungry. It is these little things throughtout the day I am trying to pay attention to. You know what's funny, it isn't a calling necessarily to feed the hungry and take care of the widows, it is a command. As followers of Christ we are commanded to take care of the least of these. Lord help me to love, clothe, and feed the naked and hungry. Help me to obey Your Words.
