Read I Chr. 18:9-10. Who did Tou send to King David?

What were the three things he sent his son Hadoram to do?

Did you know that Daddy specifically asked me to teach

you this manner? Do you see how he is sending you out to

greet and bless and give gifts (like cookies we make) to

those he wants to thank or honor? Isn't it amazing that men

have been sending their children to do these sorts of things

for thousands of years? Do you think King David waspleased with Hadoram's father King Tou because of what

Hadoram had done? Besides your earthly father, who else

do you represent here on earth? How can giving others a

greting be a blessing?
