I had a chance to go to the mall today. It has been quite a long time since I walked around there, so I meandered to see what had changed – which was a lot. At one end of the mall was a small play place for kids. There were structures to climb on, slide down, and crawl through. As I passed by, I noticed two older girls helping a very tiny younger child. They each had a hold of one hand on either side of him as they helped him climb up a big boulder and slide down the other side. The child was very happy to have the attention. It just struck me as simple, joyful kindness that made me smile.

I Found God today in kind, joyful children.
