Meagan (our church worship leader) allowed one of our little-guys (around age 10) play drums for worship. This little guy can really keep beat & is talented; however, he's young & hasn't had much experience. During one of the slow, worship songs, this little-guy wasn't keeping beat well & became frustrated at himself. One of our youth (that plays the drums as well) rescued the little-guy, patiently showing him the proper beat, used kind words to encourage instead of ridicule, and once the little-guy got the hang of it, our youth turned over the drums and allowed the little-guy to finish strong. Our sweet youth guy dropped his pride - went in front of the congregation to help a child, and didn't just take-over but taught & took no glory of 'rescue' for himself. This youth's compassion, patience, kindness & willingness to serve touched my heart. I'm so proud of the small fruits that God is showing me!
