He Created You

I woke up this morning

Saw a world full of trouble now

Thought, how’d we ever get so far down

How’s it ever gonna turn around

So I turned my eyes to Heaven

I thought, “God, why don’t You do something?”

. . .

He said, “I did, I created you”

I was volunteering up at the boys' school this week when I came across a board of recognition for students who were caught doing good things.  I don't know why I was surprised, but I found this: 

I am one proud mama.  Barrett is very good about using money wisely and he is an excellent saver.  He is also very generous and often willingly spends his hard-earned money buying gifts for others.  He has also invested some money and is starting to see his money work for him.  I am very proud of him for being the helping hand a friend needed. It's not always easy to give up something you worked hard to earn, but he did and he was happy to do it and expected nothing in return.  That's character.   That's what makes Barrett shine.
