Baby Rabbits

Mary’s Monday Musings to Quilt Encouragement
Baby Rabbits

Eager hands reached out to pet the cute baby bunnies. Only a few weeks old, the bunnies were small, cute, and enjoyed the attention. They were defenseless little creatures, so the children needed to be shown the safe and comfortable way to handle the trusting little creatures. Lots of Oh’s and Ah’s accompanied the touch of the soft fur. And a lot of learning about the vulnerability of small new creatures taught a level of respect to use for future application. All that from the chance to pet some new baby bunnies.

Little children’s minds are like a blank slate. They learn many amazing things in a short time. It pays for us to stay alert to each opportunity to share important life enhancing principles whenever possible. These fundamental values will bless the children all their lives. As adults, we also need to be alert to what we need to learn even at our stage of life that will enable us to speak encouragement to the discouraged, to comfort the grieving. Ask God to show you what values you need to absorb into your daily life, into your daily conversation, into your daily relationships that will change the life of those with whom we connect.
