chas' ordination to be a teacher

chas was ordained today. the blessing, given by his father, was beautiful. chas has been given so many talents. forrest pixton -- his deacons quorum advisor and our family friend -- told chas after the blessing that one of the gifts that chas has is the gift to see what other people need. he said that because chas is smart he often finishes whatever task is assigned quickly and has leftover time while others are finishing. forrest said that he has seen, in those moments, chas looking around and identifying who is in need of help. he said he's seen chas do and say things that are directed at helping others. he was quite emotional telling us all this. essentially he was saying chas has the gift of discernment. and i agree.

so grateful for forrest's words.

can't wait to see what chas accomplishes for the good of the Lord in his life. i imagine he will lead an amazing life of service. i can envision him alleviating a lot of suffering through his ability to lead and carry out complex plans and tasks.

i saw a part of chas' spirit today. and so i saw God.
