This is an old blog post I recently discovered in the Drafts folder. Don't know why I didn't post it. It's from 2010. Here - an interesting observation:
April 2010: At church yesterday I had the opportunity to sit with a little girl who means a lot to me. As we sang in the begining of service, I listened to her sweet voice and marveled at the innocence and purity of her love for Jesus. Later, she sat on my lap during the sermon. While the preacher spoke, she played with my hands, tracing the lines on my palms. At one point, she whispered in my ear, "There are letters and a star on your hands". I smiled and she showed me different letters by connecting the lines. She played with my jewlery. I wear a ring on my left thumb; it's a crown of thorns. I got this ring shortly after my divorce and I wear it to remind me no matter how much I think I might suffer in this life, there is One who suffered exponentially more for the benefit of all mankind. She asked me about the ring and I told her it is a crown of thorns like the one Jesus wore. Her eyes grew wide and she said, "His crown should have been made of gold, not thorns. He was still King, anyway."
