JONAH'S HEALTH HISTORY

Tuesday, March 10, 2020

ALMOST GOT IT, BUT STILL SWEET!


About 2 weeks ago, the Sunday School lesson for the boys was about Jesus washing the feet of His disciples.  I talked to the boys that this meant we need to find ways to serve others and be kind and loving to them.  

Well, the other day Jonah was in the bathtub.  Andrew was in there supervising him.  I was wondering what was taking so long so I went to check with Andrew.  He said that Jonah was busy washing his feet.  

In my impatience, I explained that Jonah should get out now because we had things to do and places to go.  Andrew said he was trying to get Jonah to move along, but Jonah was a signing "Jesus" and then pointing to his feet.  Jonah was washing his feet like we had talked about in Sunday School a few weeks ago.
The only thing is Jesus didn't wash his own feet- He washed the feet of others.  Which is where the humility, servanthood, and love stuff comes in.  Who really wants to wash other people's feet, right?

So I think Jonah's heart was in the right place, he just was washing the wrong set of feet-haha.  

Life with these boys makes me smile!  

However, this whole story is more a lesson to me to stop rushing to get things done.  Instead, I should take time to notice these precious moments laying right by my "feet".
