Faith in Action
There`s one more little detail from yesterday`s soccer game, that I want to write down before I forget it.
One of the players on the other team tried for a goal, but the ball sailed over the top of the goalpost.
Our team`s goalie, a little boy in Big Son`s class, sighed with relief and made the sign of the cross, and all the parents watching said, "Awwwwwwww....."
I don`t know -- maybe you have to be Catholic to think that`s cute, but it really was.

Of course it was. I say "thank you Lord" (Protestant version of sign of the cross) at some of the strangest times; some more appropriate than others.
He has the rest of his life to learn that God probably doesn't control the outcome of soccer games. For now, he can enjoy the moment.
No, you don't have to be Catholic to think that's cute!
