Said the little boy, “Sometimes I drop my spoon.”
Said the little old man, “I do that too.”
The little boy whispered, “I wet my pants.”
“I do that too,” laughed the little old man.
Said the little boy, “I often cry.”
The old man nodded, “So do I.”
“But worst of all,” said the boy, “it seems
Grown-ups don’t pay attention to me.”
And he felt the warmth of a wrinkled old hand.
“I know what you mean,” said the little old man.

I will be honest here and share that I am not always comfortable
Around elderly people. I’ve never wanted to spend too much time with
Them - it puts me out of my comfort zone. But to give a little
Perspective, how many people would describe being in their comfort
Zone spending time in a room of teenagers. My point is that God
Wires us all differently. I’d rather spend time with teens; others
Would rather be with infants while others with the elderly.

But that doesn’t excuse us from not honoring those that we don’t
Always feel comfortable with. God wants to stretch us and shake up
That comfort zone, sometimes; He wants to kick us completely out of
That comfort zone.

He wants us to honor everyone; our parents and our grandparents, the
Young and the old, those we agree with and those we don’t, that
Homeless person on the street and all those in authority positions -
EVERYONE! I challenge you, this week, to think about who you are
Honoring, and who you are not.
