Every child on
God's earth
is precious in His sight.
All He asks is that we try
to do things that are right.
When God looks
down from heaven,
Jason Smith can feel His
gaze.
Jason
thanks God for mornings
that turn into bright days
filled with friends and story times
beneath the sun's bright rays.
He must have
taken special care
when giving Jason Smith
sight
to see the butterflies by day
and shining stars by night.
Jason's
nose is such a wondrous gift;
it smells all kinds of things,
Like fresh cut grass and hot fruit pies
and flowers in the spring.
Jason
listens very quietly
while Mommy reads a book.
Where is that music coming from?
The window, take a look!
Jason
loves to picnic at the beach;
he's happy he
can taste.
The sweetness of fresh fruit galore;
none ever goes to waste.
Jason
uses God's gift of touch
when giving friends a hug,
and with his finger he explores
cold water, rocks and bugs.
With friends and
loved ones all around,
Jason knows he must be
kind.
In Valparaiso, everyone
agrees
he's the best friend you can find.

We are
all God's children. He loves you, Mike
Smith. God made us and loves us all.
Because God cares about you, Mike, He
watches over everything you do in
Atlanta. He watches you wherever you go.
God is happy that you like playing with
Larry, Wayne and Bob. He is pleased when
you are kind to others.
Mike, you
live in a wonderful world full of God's
interesting and beautiful creations.
Some of God's gifts are things you see,
smell, hear, taste, or touch. You enjoy
these gifts by using your five senses.
Sometimes, these senses do not work as
they should. If a child cannot see or
hear well, God often makes his or her
other senses work even better. God loves
all His children!
This is a marvelous place that God has
created for us, Mike. There are so many
amazing things for you to enjoy with
Larry, Wayne and Bob.
God gave
you eyes to see, Mike. During your day,
you can see the rising sun, smiling
faces, fluttering butterflies, blooming
flowers, floating clouds and colorful
rainbows.
At the end of your glorious day, you see
the setting sun, the rising moon and the
twinkling stars. Some evenings, you can
also see blinking fireflies, or you can
lie safely tucked in bed and watch
lightning flash across the sky.
God paints such a beautiful picture for
you each and every day, Mike! Please
take time to enjoy His artwork. |
