12/11/97 Good morning.... ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ You know children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers. ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 1 Corinthians 13:11 A little girl once asked her grandmother, "How old are you?" The grandmother replied, "Now dear, you shouldn't ask people that question. Most grown-ups don't like to tell their age." The next day the little girl had another question. She asked, "Grandma, how much do you weigh?" The grandmother said Oh, honey, you shouldn't ask grown- ups how much they weigh. It isn't polite." The third day the little girl came to her grandmother with a big smile and announced, "Grandma, I know how old you are. You're sixty-two. And I also know that you weigh 140 pounds." "My goodness," the grandmother said, "how do you know all that?" The little girl replied, "You left your driver's license on the table and I read it." And then the little girl added, "And I also saw on your driver's license that you flunked sex." Three of the greatest things a parent can ever do are: 1) Answer a child's questions to the full extent the child is capable of understanding an answer, 2) Give a child information he needs to have, and spare him knowledge he doesn't need. 3) Take time to converse with your child. Each is a genuine act of love. ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ Do you ask, "How do you know God's
voice when you hear it?" I answer with a question:
How do you know the voices of your loved ones? You know
them because you listen to them often. Listen often in
obedience to the still, small voice of God. Father, tune our ears to Your voice, so that we may always hear Your commands and comfort. ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ ++ Greetings Brethren! Hope this day is ALREADY revealing blessings for you....and God's Will in your life is continually flowing.... May we partake together of His unsearchable riches in Christ Jesus!!
