HE STAYS THE SAME


I bet I was the only little girl in
Mount Dora, who embroidered Jesus;made Guava Jelly Jesus;played Dominoes Jesus;played Scrabble Jesus;sang Jesus, and when we finally got around to reading the Bible(which was all the time), we read Jesus too! It seems, that everything I did, while at Grandmother Bouterse's trailer, involved Jesus! If there were a certain number of dots on the Dominoes, she would relate it to the Lord in someway.

Even the "blind" stitching she taught me to use on my hems, she used to teach me about Jesus giving sight to the "blind"!.......
Even after all these years,I can still remember it like it was yesterday! Jesus was always a joy to Grandmother, as it should be for all of us, so, naturally, it became joyful for me too!
When the seed is planted at the beginning and cultivated throughout your life, it's kinda hard not to have it with you,later on.
I am so thankful that I do.......
My embroidery isn't too good anymore, and I usually get beat at Scrabble. I don't have Guava's(wish I did!) here in Beaufort, nor do I remember how to play Dominoes, but I do have Jesus with me, and His word has said that He will NEVER leave me, nor forsake me!
He never changes. He stays the same, and I like that!
