The faith of a child

W has a major obsession with trash trucks. Today is trash day and he lives for the moment he gets to see the trash truck in the morning and the recycle truck in the afternoon. It started raining this afternoon so we had to come inside from our usual afternoon outside time. As the rains came down even harder, he looked at me and told me to ask God to stop the rain so he could see out his window better. I told W since he was the one who wanted to watch the recycle truck he needed to pray and ask God to do that. So, with the faith that only a child has, he prayed to God and asked Him to please stop the rain so he could see out the window and watch the recycle truck when it comes. Not 5 minutes later the rain slowed down! If only we all had that kind of faith to not be afraid and turn to God with every thing in our life because He does care about it all. It's not just the big things that are important, it's the little things that matter too.
