A cup of cold water

My girls have been sick for the last week and a half- lethargic, runny nose, coughing, no appetite... no fun at all, really. They seem to be doing better now, though, so I'm glad it's finally run its course. The first morning they woke up coughing and calling out for me, my first thought was "If you give a cup of cold water to one of these little ones, you will not lose your reward." It was an encouragement to me that God sees what I am doing, and although I feel a little disconnected from the world during this season, I can still bless God's heart by serving my children well.
