Little Bobby never stopped talking the entire time Mom drove to the grocer. Mom why is the sky blue? Bobby asked. They walked pass a homeless man as they approached the entrance to the store and Bobby asked, Why is that man playing in the trash? Up and down the isles Bobby chattered on. As Mom paid for the groceries Bobby talked and talked. As Mom grabbed Bobby's hand and turned to leave, she sucked in breath as she noticed a little boy being pushed in a wheelchair. He was headed their way. His crooked little mouth told a story of the devastating toll the disease had taken on his twisted little body. Mom whispered a silent prayer, requesting that her inquisitive little son would be quiet just this once. Suddenly Bobby loudly exclaimed: Look Mom, He has a baseball cap just like mine!
If only the world could be like little Bobby. Lets celebrate what we have in common, instead of dwelling on our differences!
Then Peter opened his mouth and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons! (Acts 10:34)
