It is the fruit I labor (with God) to produce in my kids that is most DELICIOUS.

Words That Stir My Heart
"Even in childhood was implanted within me a trace of that mysterious unity from which I was derived" St. Augustine
Everybody has to change or they expire. Everybody has to leave, leave their home and come back so they can love it again for all new reasons. I want to keep my soul fertile for the changes, so things keep getting born in me, so things keep dying when it is time for things to die. I want to keep walking away from the person I was a moment ago. Only a good story has a character different at the end than it was in the beginning.

Donald Miller
"Our whole life was only given to us to advance us by great strides toward our heavenly country."
Lancelot Andrews
In my life, God is always changing the way I think of Him. I am not saying God Himself is changing, or that my theology is open and I blur the lines on truth; I am only saying I think I know who He is, then I figure out I don't know very much at all.
Searching For God Knows What

A proud man is always looking down on things and people: and of course, as long as you are looking down, you cannot see something that is above you.
Mere Christianity
C.S. Lewis

beautiful - picture and words.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great reminder. I just got a mixed CD of children's worship songs from a friend and there's a really cute song about the fruits of the spirit:
ReplyDeleteThe fruit of the spirit's not a coconut.
The fruit of the spirit's not a coconut.
So if you want to be a coconut, you might as well hear it:
You can't be a fruit of the spirit
'Cause the fruit is:
Love
Joy
Peace
Patience
Kindness
Goodness
Faithfulness
Gentleness and
Self Control...
And it goes through a bunch of fruits. Cute song!!
Love this.
ReplyDeleteSo thoughtful, Denise. Those are the most delicious fruit, indeed.
