What began as a fun afternoon of pretend for my five grandchildren quickly transformed into something quite different. Though Jolie gives her older cousin a run for her money, Kaeli is definitely the bossiest of the crew, which is pretty typical of the oldest child. One of the two came up with the bright idea to play "McDonald's," the ONLY restaurant children EVER want to go to!
I could hardly believe it! Christmas was almost here! As a child, I thought it would NEVER get here, but as I get older, it's surprising just how quickly one Christmas follows another. Of course, that probably has a lot more to do with how early stores begin setting up their holiday displays than it does my age. Is it my imagination, or do they decorate earlier every year?
Have you ever noticed the power of smell to trigger memories buried in the trenches of your mind? Fragrances have the power to take the mind great distances in miles and years, instantly filling it with faces of people long gone, places thought forgotten, or experiences of the past - whether they be treasured or despised.
Have you noticed that every time you take a step forward in your spiritual life, opposition is not far behind? It could be any number of steps such as a greater commitment to daily Bible study and prayer, putting more priority on peace and joy in your home, or cleaning up your conversation. When God's people start doing what God says, Satan launches an attack.
It’s a stage show that’s inspiring, educational, downright amusing at times, and absolutely free of charge! What is it? Nature. Or, in God’s words, “the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the beasts…and every thing that creeps upon the earth.”Genesis 1:28We’re usually too preoccupied to be amused or awed by it very often, but this “show” goes on around the clock!
