Take your child to work day.



Since you asked....

Katie had a wonderful time.

She met many children, but didn't come home with any phone numbers.
She toured the building, built a little structure, checked out the computers, learned about education and self-motivation
(Hi Benn), learned about voting, men and women in the workforce, and being eco-friendly.

She says she would like to be an animal photographer.

I had a little talk with her and shared with her my ideas about being eco-friendly.

I told her that indeed God wants us to be good stewards of all that HE has given us.
Being a believer doesn't mean we don't take care of what we are blessed with...
it is even more important because we are taking care of it for God.

Kind of like, we are working for Him.

So we take care of our surroundings, and the animals and our bodies.

It's good to be a good steward.

But the bit about lightbulbs. I told her that's just a big old lie.

This was Wednesday.

Today it is 36 degrees out and the wind howled like crazy all night.

Burr.

Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others,
as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms.
