The Same Peach

I had yet another enlightening conversation with a two-year old the other day:

Seth wasn't happy about the peach on his plate...It took me a minute to fiqure out what the problem was.

"You want Anaya's peach?"

"Yets."

"But I divided up the same peach!--it's on both of your plates..." I said in desperation.

God reminded me: Saralyn, don't you do that to me too sometimes...wishing for someone else's blessings...when my grace is the same for everyone. My Son has paid the price for all...He's the "same peach." Why do you want something else when I've already given you everything you need?
