You know I think we all have heroes in our lives. It is that person that we look up to or are inspired by; and many times we model our lives like them. This weekend I found my new hero. He isn't a colleague, or a long-time friend, and he really doesn't even know how to speak. He is a little boy we call, "little man." This week when I was away at a conference, I got to spend a lot of time with one of my newest heroes, Caleb Rogers. As we got to hang out at the mall and eat at restaurants, I was so taken back by this little guy. First and foremost, I was amazed that this little guy had so much life and energy... all of which was given to him by Jesus. Anyway, one of the things about him that I love so much is the confidence that is displayed on his face through laughs and smiles; knowing that he is Shane's child. He didn't have to prove anything to anyone... he just had to be himself. It is the same way with us and God... we don't have to prove anything to anyone... We have an audience of 1. Be who you are and be confident that we are God's children...
Cheer's to you Caleb...
