Extreme ‘Go Fish’
Written by Josh on Jun 21, 2008
I love spending time with my family during the summer, making memories together. Yesterday I was playing Go Fish with my daughter and son, Lilly and Titus. Since it was a modified version of the old game, Lilly called it Extreme Go Fish. Titus had every deck of cards we had for the fish pile, so there were easily 500 cards in the middle. The game went on for at least an hour and a half, and still we weren’t even close to finishing it (it’s still going, by the way, and at this rate may never end).
It reminded me of a few things: first, that we live in a population center with millions of “fish” all around us. Next, it reminded me just how much we can do to demonstrate Jesus’ love to these people. So how will we catch fish?
It is all about being ordinary, having authentic faith and simple courage. Do you have any… fish? No? Then go fish…
