phat phoebe


Tale of the Day: today at kid's club, I'm sitting on the floor while Julie (teacher) reviews what prayer is. As i sit there Keegon (another one of my African angels) refuses to leave my leg alone, so for the millionth time I plop him on his bottom next to me. Well obviously my empty lap is at once noticed by a little girl I refer to as 'phat Phoebe', she a big girl for her age (3). bless her sweet big heart. As she darts toward me and comfortably places her bottom in my lap, the little girl next to us kindly informs me that Phoebe has just tinkled in her pants. I immediately begin to mildly freak out, and then just burst into laughter. I begin to question phoebe, as if it will make a difference now. "Phoebe did you tinkle your pants, and just decide not to tell anyone?" she just stared at me and giggled. So I suppose it's safe to assume that a child who giggles whether in America, or Africa translates to "Yes, and I'm laughing so you think I'm cute and won't get angry." well played Phoebe, well played.

Isaiah 55:9-12 "As the heavens are higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts... so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it."
-He has a vision for each of us, and will take us through highs and lows to strengthen and mold us. His will will always be done. the question is:
What will it take for us to see that? What will finally happen in life for His purpose to be achieved?
Just a thought to ponder-carl
