He was a little boy who had never seen a circus and the very word sent thrills circulating throughout his tiny body.

“Daddy, will you give me a dollar so I can go see the circus?” It was a long time ago; a time when television and video games and others of like kin and kind had not yet entered technological minds let alone come to fruition.

“Certainly, my son if you will get all your chores done.”
I have already finished them daddy,” came back the reply and soon thereafter the dollar bill changed hands.
The little boy headed into town at just under the speed of light and was so excited his feet hardly touched the ground.

Since he arrived in town so early he found a front row spot to watch the parade.


And here they came; ponderous elephants who shook the very ground, long necked giraffes and a lion in a cage who actually roared when he was no more than a few feet away.


As the ringmaster passed by the little boy rushed out, thrust the dollar in his hand and said, “Thanks mister. That was a great circus.”

Then he turned around and walked back home. He never realized what he had missed. He thought he had seen the circus but he had only seen the parade.

There is so much our faith has to offer when we meet it with a heart on fire and show up at the right places at the right time with the right attitude.
And the knowledge of the Lord that comes when we seek is so great, and the gospels speak with such authority and grace when we open those holy pages and walk with the Master…and it is good…not because I say so from having walked with Jesus but because millions seek and millions find and the lights in heaven burn eternally bright.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.
Proverbs 3:5-6

QUOTE FROM TOMORROWS BLOG entitled IF YOU ARE NOT THE GREATEST, WHO IS? And you know the answer…
 
Having struck out twice before, for A third time he tossed the ball up in the air and swung at it. He missed again. "Strike Three!"
The little boy picked up the ball, looked at it, and cried out in a loud voice, "I'm the greatest pitcher in the world!"
