Little Leaders

Some of the sweetest little leaders I know and their followers!

Luke 18:16amp... But Jesus called them (the parents) to Him, saying, "Allow the little children to come to Me and do not hinder them, for to such (as these) belongs the Kingdom of God. Truly I say to you, whoever does not accept and receive and welcome the Kingdom of God like a little child (does) shall not in any way enter it (at all).

We think we are leading them to Jesus, but they are really leading us to Him... learning to be led with childlike wonderment to the feet of Jesus... this is what being a Mother is all about!

A glimpse into what my little leaders have taught me...

1. the true meaning of time... take it, give it and live like you might not have it tomorrow.

2. that it doesn't take big things to get the biggest response... a back scratch by mom goes a long way.

3. that kind words are healing but harsh words wound deep.

4. a listening ear brings smiles but busy hands brings sadness (the laundry can wait).

5. that waking up to kisses is much sweeter than alarm clocks.

6. that "school" really can be walking thru the woods and later reading Bambi.

7. that making messes is really making memories.

8. that my selfishness seeds reap seperation, but bonds of love can only be made by seeds of time... planting minutes, watering it for hours, hoeing my weeds daily and preserving the fruit forever in sealed hearts.
