Last night we were watching a family movie. I had noticed that Joshua was busily writing something, but wasn’t sure what it could be. All of a sudden he jumped up and handed me a little note.
The present he was referring to was a big hug. He gave one to my husband, Janna and me. When he sat back down to watch the movie he looked over at me. I told him thank you for the hug and smiled at him. He got the biggest smile on his face. It was such a precious moment.
I think I may have mentioned that one of my goals for this year is to read through the Bible by reading for 15 minutes each day. I have finished reading Genesis and Exodus and have been reading Leviticus the past few days. This part of the Bible can be so hard to get through because of all of the specifications God gave for the building of the Tabernacle and for making offerings to Him.
I have also been reading The Jesus Storybook Bible to the kids. Each of the stories makes reference to Jesus. Reading it has helped me to look at the part of the Bible I am currently reading in a whole new light.
Jesus died for our sins so that we don’t have to make all of the offerings to God that the Israelites had to. What a wonderful gift God gave us when He sent His Son to die for our sins.
Joshua’s little note makes me want to read the Bible like I did his little love note. I want to smile and daily thank God for His word, His love note, the Bible.
