Today, my youngest daughter began her two day experience of 'Champ Camp', an athlete development camp for skaters out of the Granite Club in Toronto. When she received the invitation, I was thrilled for her. However, I did not expect that I within those hallowed halls, that gave rise to many internationally acclaimed Canadian skaters, tears of pride would well.
As I looked at the walls adorned with images of skaters that I grew up admiring, my mother's words of awe for their talent flooded my mind. There I stood, hearing my mother's voice while watching my own child prepare to grace that ice training surface. If my mother was here today, I am sure she would have joined me in tears.
How many times, does our Lord fill with pride when we accomplish tasks that He set out for us? Have I lived this day in a way that would please our Father?
