Have you noticed that it is impossible to do almost anything without someone trying to tell you how to do it better.  What gets me is that often the most vocal and most critical are the ones who have no experience in what they are giving advice for.  Today's story is all about that kind of situation.

Often we find that the faith of a child can teach us much about our walk with God.  Today's story shows us that again. When 8 year old Gilbert's Scout Troup gave him the materials to build a pine wood derby car, he hoped his Dad would help him build it.  His Dad wouldn't help, but His Father came alongside him.
