One morning, my son decided to dump out his seemingly never ending bucket of mega blocks. While I tried to finish getting ready for the day, he proceeded to build a tower. One block at a time he gradually added story upon story to his mega block building. With each added increment of height he would exclaim various shouts of excitement about how big it was: "Wow!" "Look how tall!" "Mom, isn't it big?" He worked until he was sure it was the biggest tower that he could possibly make. I looked at the giant tower in our hallway and asked, "Well, what are you going to do with it?" Without hesitation, as if planned from the beginning he replied as if it was silly that I even had to ask..."I'm gonna jump over it."
Life brings challenges. Some are fun and some are rough. None of us are immune to the inevitable mega block walls that pop up in our lives. No matter the size let us face them with courage. Knowing that with faith and the Lord's will aligned with our own, we too can 'Jump Over It."
