Just Try

I have a friend who was late getting to the airport and flying to an important meeting.

As she went out the door, her little boy said, Mom, would you help me with my homework? She was a mother first, so she put down her suitcase and turned to help him. Mom, I don’t really need your help, the little boy said laughing. I just wanted to see if you would.

God, I think, does that sometimes. He gives us a hard and maybe embarrassing task, and then doesn’t require that we do it. He kind of says, I just wanted to see if you would.

If you would try to do whatever he asks, even if he doesn’t ask, you’ll be okay.

I’m Steve Brown. You think about that.
