MIXED MEDIA SPECIALIST

I think Grandmother Bouterse must have been the original mixed media specialist!
She could mix the word of God with just about any, and everything she came in contact with! (I laugh now,because it seems funny, but as a child,it was so true!)
Everything involved Jesus, and I mean everything!
We made Guava Jelly Jesus! I embroidered Jesus! I played Dominoes Jesus! I took a shower at the bathhouse on newspaper Jesus! I mowed the lawn Jesus! I wrung the clothes through the old wringer Jesus! I sang the Lord's Prayer Jesus! I swept the trailer Jesus!
This little lady didn't miss a trick(or an opportunity) with me ,to give me the word of God.He was in her entire vocabulary,so why shouldn't she? Everything she did,she did for the Lord! Today, I understand that she was doing exactly what God wanted her to do. She was doing everything as unto the Lord with thanksgiving.
She wanted to make sure her grandaughter did it too, and I'd say that she succeeded!
