Something to Think About Sunday ~ The Greatest Gift

The Greatest Gift

Last Wednesday, I was driving with Sassy and Action.

We happened to drive past a cemetery.

Action expressed that "so many people have died."

Sassy replied, "But Action, the people who have died, have received the greatest gift!"

Picture a confused look on Actions face

(after all, those people are dead, how can they get a gift?)

She continued, explaining,
"They are alive, in heaven with God.

Their bodies are buried, but their souls are in heaven, and God has made them new!

They can't come down to earth, but they can watch over all of their loved ones!

See Action, it's the GREATEST GIFT!"

I just drove, smiling because it is a Great Gift, and she understands it so well, even at 9 years old.

Conversations

#1

With Sassy as we are STUCK in traffic on the freeway:

Me: Ugh, we should have gone a different way.

Sassy: Just think mom, we might be on the "jam cam"


~ really, it is about perspective!



#2

Action, as we are in the car.

Action: Hey mom, I decided I'm not going to get a job when I grow up.

Me:  You do know honey, that daddy and I won't be paying for all of your things forever, especially when you are old enough and responsible enough to have a job of your own.

Action:  I know mom.

* wait for it...............


My wife will.


Me:  { completely dumbfounded }

Out of the mouth of Babes!

Gotta Love It!

Have an AMAZING weekend!
