Today's cherished Nugget from guest blogger Pastor Bill

Earthly thrones are generally built with steps up to them; the remarkable thing about the thrones of the eternal kingdom is that the steps are all down to them. We must descend if we would reign, stoop if we would rise. Some think that God put His best gifts on a high shelf for them to reach up to them. It does not take long, however, for a Christian to realize that the best gifts are in the lower shelves, that the babes may get them also.

I long ago learned that "normal" is just a setting on the dryer. That said, it is comforting to know God loves us and wants the best for even us so-called normal folks. While some of the grownups wanted to limit the access to Jesus, He rebuked them in Mark 10:14-15 with these words: “Suffer the little children to come
unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.”

God, thank You for having all of Your blessings on the bottom shelf so we children
can reach them. Amen.

Bro. Bill
