Big Sister, Little Sister

This is a nice children's book about two sisters. I enjoyed the illustrations in it as well.

This is my little sister. :-) I am happy to be her big sister and get the opportunity to influence her life for Christ. It is such a big responsibility, as she looks up to me and copies my words, and things I do. I need to make sure my example is worthy of being imitated. It is humbling to think about. If you have little sisters and brothers, (or friends who are younger Christians) I encourage you to keep following Christ and letting HIM shine through your life and actions. They are watching!

^"And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God."

-Romans 12:2

"At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” Then Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them, and said, “Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Whoever receives one little child like this in My name receives Me."

-Matthew 18:1-5

^"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law."

-Galatians 5:22

"Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,
The fruit of the womb is a reward.
⁴Like arrows in the hand of a warrior,
So are the children of one’s youth.
⁵Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them;
They shall not be ashamed,
But shall speak with their enemies in the gate."

-Psalm 127:3-5

Stonehenge My dad and I went along with a tour group from the US to learn more about the history of Operation Tiger. We got to meet two American veterans who also came to England. I learned the history of Operation Tiger which I had not been aware of before. This year is the 70th Anniversary of Operation Tiger. They had a big ceremony at Slapton Sands near a tank that was recovered after the war. Exercise Tiger , or Operation Tiger , was the code name for one in a series of large-scale rehearsals for the D-Day invasion of Normandy , which took place on Slapton Sands or Slapton Beach in Devon . (In late 1943) Coordination and communication problems resulted in friendly fire deaths during the exercise, and an Allied convoy positioning itself for the landing was attacked by E-boats of the German Kriegsmarine , resulting in the deaths of 946 American servicemen.

The Best [poem]

Christ wants the best. He in the far-off ages Once claimed the firstling of the flock, the finest of the wheat, And still He asks His own with with gentlest pleading To lay their highest hopes and and brightest talents at His feet. He'll not forget the feeblest service, humblest love; He only asks that of our store we give to Him The best we have. Christ gives the best. He takes the hearts we offer; And fills them with His glorious beauty, joy and peace; And in His service as we're growing stronger, The calls to great achievements still increase. The richest gifts for us on earth, or in the heavens above, Are hid in Christ. In Jesus we receive The best we have. And is our best too much? O friend, let us remember How once our Lord poured out His soul for us, And in the prime of Hi
