This past Friday our youth came together and sang Christmas songs to a group at the VA Medical Center.
We were able to sing songs, lead worship, and interact with many extraordinary men and women who served our country.
The best part of the whole service was the time afterwards. Nobody in the room cared how well we may have sung or played our instruments. The time that we spent just listening to their jokes, poems, and stories made me realize how much more of a gift it was to just be there.
We came to minister to them, but instead they ministered to us.
This happens a lot more than we realize.
