Hear the echo of, “This is probably too difficult”?

American Dinner time table
Two nights ago, what did he see and feel that was “invisible and unspoken”?

 

Is there an echo in here?

We should behave so that our children (if we are parents) have a real-life example, or as close as humans can get, of what Jesus is like.

Where else will they get this?

Seriously?

Where?

A book, a class, stories?

You’re joking, right?

What if they saw it across the dining room table? Everyday.

If not now, when?

If not ever, why?

What is unnecessary kindness?

As adults, we are gifted with the opportunity to be role models every moment of every day.

We can deliver unnecessary kindness as often as we want.

Unnecessary kindness is kindness that if not delivered is not missed.

But we’re adults.

We have endless and daily time pressures, deadlines, responsibilities, etc.

But we can still be “on” all the time.

Zealous?

Maybe zealous, but it will never be considered being on auto-pilot. Ever.

An epiphany last night. Realizing that the way we handle major life milestones may be more important than the outcome itself.

Will I Ever Become Less Busy So That I Might Be A Better Listener And Better Doer?

Looks like a great day to fix a leaky roof.

Perhaps it’s The Three Little Pigs fable that justifies my busy-ness. Or maybe tough economic times and seeing friends and family lose their jobs and benefits after a lifetime of dedication.

Common sense Insight: Always be prepared – Boy Scout motto. The time to fix the roof is when the sun is shining – JFK.
