It's Ok

As one of my little students reminded me the other day...it's ok. :) Sometimes we just think things are such a big deal and so hard, but they're just not that bad. It's all in our perspective. We were learning about obedience--our definition is "a willingness to do with a happy heart what I am told." I tried to keep a straight face as the problems that third graders face unfolded. Speaking in all seriousness (as one who well-versed in difficult matters of life), one of them shared that he had learned: "It's ok. I can help with the dishes."

If I could just see my life from God's perspective, I'd probably be laughing at me too. It's ok...He can handle my dishes!
