THE PERFECT ZIP CODE!
..........After my father died, his wife,Jean, mailed me the envelopes of some letters he had mailed to my mother during world war II.He had written and drawn pictures, with the addresses on the envelopes, and she had laminated them onto a sheet of paper, and sent them all to me. He had drawn caricatures on the envelopes, such as Superman, flying along, carrying a letter, addressed to:"Those Ray Kids, Mount Dora,Florida". He never included a post office box number, or zip code,(they didn't have them then!)but the men and women in the post office, knew who my brothers and sister were, and automatically delivered the letter to the correct address anyway!
........When I think about this though, I have to smile,because I imagine my Heavenly Father, seeking us out, and knowing, each of us, and our addresses.............even before we were born!!!
His would be a hard zip code to look up, but a wonderful one to look up to!
