The life you can Save

Today at The Warehouse, “where everyone gets a bargain”, I picked up a very interesting little booklet. The title of the booklet is “Love being a Mum, it’s worth every moment!”

On the back of the publication I read, “This booklet has been developed as part of a joint project between SKIP and The Warehouse.” SKIP is short for Strategies with Kids / Information for Parents.

I read the booklet with great interest. On one page is written:  “Having kids doesn’t come with a manual, but I’m being the best Mum I can be – learning as I go.”

Most of the things you buy come with a manual, a book of instructions and information. I have a good  number of computer manuals on my bookshelf.

The book of information and instructions for LIFE is the BIBLE, the Word of the Living Good!

Proverbs 22:6 says: “Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.”

“O for a thousand tongues to sing

my great Redeemer’s praise,

the glories of my God and King,

the triumphs of His grace.”

C. Wesley

“When people stop believing in  God they don’t believe in nothing – they believe in anything.”*
