Greetings Bible Enthusiast!

How often do we stop and consider the tremendous blessings that children bring into our lives. The joy, the fun, the newness of perspective, and freshness of thought. It is a privilage to spend time with children, yet often in the busyness of a day, we tend to foget this.

God Bless You!

--DAILY BIBLE VERSE:

Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD,
The fruit of the womb is a reward.
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior,
So are the children of one's youth.
Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them;

Psalm 127:3-5

Let us take extra time out of our day to thank God for our children.

--FEATURED REFLECTION:

A child's eyes! Those clear wells of undefiled thought! What on earth can be more beautiful? Full of hope, love, and curiosity, they meet your own. In prayer, how earnest! In joy, how sparkling! In sympathy, how tender!
