There is a favorite game which all the Bible Club children like to play while they are waiting for program to start on Tuesday nights. They all gather together and play color tag. On Tuesday little Miss Grace (first grader) was heavily involved in playing color tag when her mom came out and asked her to show Sarah (a friend) how to play the game. Grace very kindly took Sarah by the hand and led her into the confusion. You see color tag is a very energetic and fast game. In the game, all the children, except a few, go to one wall and stand their waiting for the children in the middle to call out a color. If you have the color they call on your clothing or shoes you have to try and run to the other side of the room past the taggers, without getting tagged. Now you know what I mean when I say this is a game of energy and confusion! Back to the part about Grace and Sarah. Grace and Sarah walked to the wall of children and stood there waiting to hear the color. After noticing that Sarah was a bit unsure of herself, Grace walked up to Mrs. Bethany (Bible Club worship leader) and said, “This is my friend Sarah and this is her first time, do you think you could tell them to take it easy on her she’s a little nervous.” Oh how sweet it was to see Grace take care of her friend like that! It reminded me of the game that the first graders played a few weeks ago. The game was about helping someone in need, it reminded me of the baby doll that had fallen in the mud and Grace picked her up and was an advocate for Sarah. Grace very easily could have left Sarah to fend for herself, but she didn’t. Great example of how many times God treats us the same way.
