About That Work?

Now just for clarification purposes--

I am not really highly gullible!

But my younger children must think I am!!!

These are the walnut 'hulls' the kids finished with yesterday!!! Notice any thing funny? Like all the actual----walnuts!





These are the nuts the kids brought in!!! Again, notice anything funny? Like maybe all those hard shells that are going to feel just great in your cookies!!!

Now I do recognize that they are just kids, and not to expect perfection......

But you also have to realize that these are not kids who learned a work ethic from childhood. You know when you have your kids help you carry something, or have them help set the table, or dry the dishes, or make their beds, it goes on and on. Actually with such high unemployment numbers in Liberia, post civil war, they saw lots of people sitting around doing nothing a lot.

So teaching that any job worth doing, needs to be done well is an important task for us everyday.

I love how God works things too!! This mornings Bible lesson was on Nehemiah returning to Jerusalem and encouraging the rebuilding of the walls and gates!! The people were content with a half way reconstructed Jerusalem, but that is not the kind of job God wants done!! Wow, what a precursor into our discussion on work ethic!!
