From Joanna:

The Rush

In becoming so developed and advanced in our world, I believe that we sometimes lose specific lessons and get disconnected from certain facts. One such lesson is the process of watching our food grow from seed to the fullness of the fruit that we feast on. We walk in our grocery store, and most of the time, what we need is in arm’s reach, easily accessible, with no consideration about the process required to obtain the substance that we hold in our hand. For the food to get to us, the land must be prepared, seeds planted, and plants tended, all before the fruit is picked, sorted, shipped, and displayed on our neat grocery shelves.

Captive Thoughts

As a teacher, I recognize that learning takes place most easily when students use more than one or two senses to take in the information. Some learn best through hearing, some, seeing, some working with their hands. So, when I taught Youth Girls’ Sunday School, I liked to bring in activities that got us out of the book.

Once, I brought a piece of poster board. I folded it in quarters short-way so it would make a tall standing cube. We spread it out on the table, and I instructed the girls to grab markers. I told them to write down all the negative names they were called by other people – and all the negative things they thought of themselves. They looked at each other, unsure, and they looked at me the same way. “You want us to write these things down?” Yes!
