To Be...Prepared to Pass IT on. 29

This charmer turned 10 yesterday!

November 29

When the opportunity comes to share the gospel are we prepared to pass it on?  Plans shifted and we ended up being blessed by three of our grandchildren for the week. It was a last minute plan, so I didn't have any time to set big plans in motion.

There is a fabulous children's book called The Treasure Tree about four best animal friends who are celebrating their birthdays together.  Lance the lion, Honey the golden retriever, Giggles and Otter, and Chewy the Beaver.  A wise old owl gave them the gift of a treasure hunt for four golden keys as their present.

The adventure can only be completed by the four applying their God given strengths to tough situations and by learning to appreciate one another's individuality in the process.

Each day we read one of the six chapters and embarked on our own adventure as we recognized one another's strengths.  

We began our time together memorizing James 1:19.

"Be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to grow angry."  It had an enormous impact on our time together.

When you have the Bible, you have plenty to pass on with very little preparation.

"Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations."  Psalm 100:4-5

Thankful Thought
Thank God for friends and family who will listen to you as you pass on your faith.
