Today has been a day of plain ol good fun! It is Sunday so we went to church...but since we got home...the kids are having a ball. They hooked up the sprinkler and they have been wet all afternoon. The last time I looked out they were pulling up worms and sitting on the sidewalk, soaking wet with dirt and worms between them.
As an adult, I had to be busy...cutting grass...and sweeping porches...but then it was like...what the heck..why am I not checking out worms, too.
Sometimes we take ourselves much too serious...we need to STOP and run in the water and play in the dirt. We are much too uppity and take ourselves much too serious...so take some time today...this day of REST...and enjoy being outside....with the kids or the dogs and just have some fun...how long has it been since you ran through a sprinkler...get out there and turn on some water...and laugh and enjoy!!
I am sure somewhere in scripture it talks about just enjoying life...enjoying the joy God has given us.
Wait...try this one...
Proverbs 15:13 - "A happy heart makes the face cheerful, but heartache crushes the spirit." (NIV)
OK forget that heartache thing...but remember a happy heart makes the face cheerful!! Go have some fun...I can not believe that God is a stick in the mud!!
