Most every morning another woman and I go on a jog right as the sun is coming up. It is a great time to talk and view God's beautiful creation. These past weeks have been especially fun because of the animal tracks we have seen. All summer we have seen deer tracks and just last week we saw bear tracks. We think we also saw a cougar print last week. But, this morning we were so blessed to see a female moose walking on the road. What a site!! It was exciting. Also, we saw huge bear tracks this morning. I have been told when fall approaches they are seen more and more. I am not sure how I feel about seeing a bear. I am excited to see the tracks but that is enought for me! Thank God we have two dogs that wait for us to take our jog in the morning. I am not sure that I would go without them.
Remember to take time to notice God's creation today. Show your children God's handiwork and teach them how to observe nature. Use God's Word and creation to teach character traits to your children. A great resource to guide you in this are the Character Sketches books or booklets from the Institute in Basic Life Principles. You can view and order their resources online at www.iblp.org.
Join me in thanking God for taking such care to create a beautiful world for us to live on. He did it all for us! Wow, thank you God for loving us so much even though we don't deserve it. Have a beautifully blessed day!
This sounds so great and EXCITING! I have learned so much from the Basic Life Principles. Right now I am listening to Otto Konings Pineapple series...oh my! Wish we could sit and chat about it.
