Love is all we need

This morning, Madi was playing with five little shapes from her baby doll step stool--a circle, a star, a square, a triangle, and a heart. She claimed they were her "powers". She handed me the heart, instructed me to hold it up in the air and explained that it was "the superpower that could save everyone".

How appropriate. How curiously wise that this child of nearly four years chose the heart to represent the superpower that could save our lives. Children are so pure and unclouded. This was my gentle reminder from God, through Madi, that love is truly all we need.
