A Generous Heart

Today I noticed Micaela place a handfull of change in the offering plate. I asked her if she took that from her jar (thinking it was bicycle money). No, she giggled and pointed at me- I took it from your jar. Although I think it's pretty funny, we had a talk about taking things that aren't yours, and giving things to God that don't really belong to you. I told her about King David and Ornan's threshing floor, and she was a little embarrased. It's good to give, I said, and I'm not mad- I just want you to give what's yours. Ian wasn't much help in this situation. He just grinned and laughed. So, that's a little story to remember; although, it has lost some of it's humor and sweetness in the writing :)
