Smiles Go A Long Way

I was interested to read the following poem by Diane Sample on her website Blessings For Life.

When God Smiles
We reach out a hand to help a friend;

And God smiles.

We gather on our knees in prayer,

And God smiles.

We give to the poor and visit the sick

And God smiles.

We turn our hearts from sinful ways,

And God smiles.

The Bible doesn't really say

That God has smiled, it's true.

Somehow I feel as though He does

When to His name we're true.

Parents smile when they are pleased

With children who obey.

Would not our Father smile at us

When we walk in His way?

These thoughts reminded me of a photo I received recently from our brother, Stewart, with our two nephews, Jesse (l) and Jordan (r).

Yes, smiles cetainly go a long way!
