Speaking from the Heart

This Saturday morning began with Joyland Christmas play rehearsal at the church. Minnie has one of the leading roles. A month ago, The Inquisitor told me that he wanted to volunteer with the play. I was apprehensive about it. Because The Inquisitor could not stand/sit still, he had made the teacher nervous during last summer's Vacation Bible School. The same teacher was teaching choir. I told him that if he was going to volunteer, he needs to slow down, especially around the teacher.

Mark took my words to heart. A month into his volunteer work, the teacher told me that Mark was an asset to the play. He helped out with a smile on his face. He could be depended on. Finally, he didn't have to wait for an instruction, if he saw something that needed to be done, he took it upon himself and do it. If he was in doubt, he would ask a teacher.
