Trying to be like the original example of a homesteading woman:
"She's up before dawn, preparing breakfast for her family, and organizing her day. She looks over a field and buys it, then, with money she's put aside, plants a garden." Proverbs 31:15-16 (The Message)
On Monday, I started working with my 3-yr old grandson to learn a Bible verse. His mother selected the verse before she left for the day. We practiced it all throughout the day. I even showed him where it was in the Bible so he could understand why we had to learn the reference with the verse.
Tuesday morning he walked up to where I had laid down my open Bible. He knelt beside it and pointed to a passage and asked, "Is this first johnny four eight?" Amused and amazed, I said yes and asked him what the verse said. He placed his finger on a word and tapped across as he responded with "God is love."
He repeated the verse, reference and all to everyone in the house when they came home and even told it to his mother when she called to check on him.
