A MOTHER’S STORY ~ Part 1

“No Charge”

My sister’s little boy
Came in the kitchen one evening
While she was fixing supper
And he handed her a piece paper
He had been writing on
And after wiping her hands on her apron
She took it in her hands and read it
And this is what it said:
For mowing the yard $5
And for making up my own bed this week $1
For going to the store $.50
And playing with little brother while you went shopping $.25
Taking out the trash $1
And for getting a good report card $5
And for raking the yard $2
Total owed $14.75

How much would your child charge you, or how much did you charge your parents?

WEDNESDAY WISDOM

Lent?

What do you value most right now and what matters least?

Lent is the season where the Christians prepare for Easter. Starting with Ash Wednesday. Lent spans 40+ days until Thursday, April 17th. In the fourth chapter of Matthew, Yeshua spends 40 days in the desert, fasting, praying, and preparing for his mission. Lent is your opportunity to re-focus.

Lent is your invitation to take your spiritual life seriously. Lent is the perfect time to form life-giving habits and abandon self-destructive habits. Lent is your chance to discover the abundant life CHRIST invites us to at Easter.

Take these 40 days to explore God’s dream for your life and it will change everything. Are you ready? What do you have to lose?
