Some "Be" Attitudes

I love children's books. Children are so simple, and we adults are always complicating things. It's no wonder they are carefree!!

Here are a few little bits of wisdom from one of our books, God's Little Instruction Book for kids...

1. Beauty shines through in the good that you do.
Your beauty should come from within you-the beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit. This beauty will never disappear, and it is worth very much to God. 1 Peter 3:4

2. Those who are tardy may miss the party.
The "right time" is now. 2 Corinthians 6:2

3. Obey now, Play later. Disobey now, Pay later.
If they obey and serve him, the rest of their lives will be successful. And the rest of their years will be happy. But if they do not listen, they will die....without knowing better. Job 36:11-12

4. Make the one who's been left out your special friend.
Do for other people what you want them to do for you. Luke 6:31

5. When you get a lemon, make lemonade!
You meant to hurt me, But God turned your evil into good. Genesis 50:20

6. Problems are opportunities in disguise.
Those who are sad now are happy. God will comfort them. Matthew 5:4

7. The thoughts that you think are up to you. What you think is what you do.
Those who are pure in their thinking are happy. They will be with God. Matthew 5:8

8. When brother's a bother and sister's sassy, pay them with patience.
Love is patient and kind. 1 Corinthians 13:4

9. Give miles of smiles in great big piles!
Happiness makes a person smile. Proverbs 15:13

10. Manners matter.
Love is not rude. 1 Corinthians 13:5

11. God loves you.
The Father has loved us so much! He loved us so much that we are called children of God.

What great wisdom for kids, but as adults,we need to believe it too!
