WONDER WHY?

There's an art to growing up today, and not just anybody can do it.
Well at least not anyone who wants to amount anything! You can grow up and just exist, and then you can grow up and really live, and that's what I'm talking about!.....It's truly an art....a lost art! If we aren’t careful it will become extinct too!
Jesus wanted us to leave spiritual markers for those coming behind as a reminder of what was important to those that had gone on before. In our society today, one of these markers deals with manners and it's impact on our growing up......
It's the growing up and learning the customary manners like "please and thank you", and taking your hat of at the table that will make a difference!
How many people do you hear asking to excuse themselves from the table anymore? How many people call and thank the hostess for their dinner when invited to their house for supper? How many of us hand write thank you notes anymore? (What's that?) How many open Do we a door for a lady, or for anyone, for that matter? Compliment folks? Do we Teach our children about Jesus?
There are way too many "things" we have thrown out the window today, and the art of manners is one of them!...... What a shame!
When Jesus comes back into the equation, though, everything else seems to fall into place.....
Wonder why?
God is love, that's why, and love covereth a multitude of sins!
