"The soul is healed by being with children."
--English Proverb
As I have counted my many blessings this month, I have already said I'm thankful for being a child of God, thankful for my children and grandchildren, but let me take my thanks and expand it - I am grateful for all children. For many years I have had association with my own children, grandchildren, and extended families with their children plus neighbors and friends. I have taught in church and at school. I have no doubt - children bless our lives. Yes, they can be very busy and get into things and exasperate us beyond belief with their doings, but I am still thankful for them. Children with all their innocence can lead us to Christ. They are examples to us with their forgiving spirits, love, and trust - just to name a few. Watch the bible video included in this post which takes the words of the Savior and teaches the importance of children and becoming like them.
Just wanted to tell you how much I have enjoyed your "Thanksgiving" posts. Thanks for sharing.
