The kiddos wanted me to read to them tonight so I picked out a couple of books that were their favorites when they were little. One was "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish" and another was "The Foot Book". Both are Dr. Seuss books. I read them to them just as I did years ago. With all the funny voices and voice inflections. By the time I was done, we were laughing. I love making memories with my kiddos.
But, on a side note, I also remember another Dr. Seuss Book: "Oh, The Places You'll Go!" Here is an excerpt from it:
"You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.
You're on your own. And you know what you know.
And YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go.
You'll look up and down streets. Look 'em over with care.
About some you will say, "I don't choose to go there."
With your head full of brains and your shoes full of feet,
you're too smart to go down any not-so-good street.
And you may not find any
you'll want to go down.
In that case, of course,
you'll head straight out of town.
It's opener there
in the wide open air.
Out there things can happen
and frequently do
to people as brainy
and footsy as you.
And then things start to happen,
don't worry. Don't stew.
Just go right along.
You'll start happening too.
OH!
THE PLACES YOU'LL GO!
You'll be on y our way up!
You'll be seeing great sights!
You'll join the high fliers
who soar to high heights."
It kind of makes me think...Oh the places in life I have been. The memories that I have from over the years. And, to think that God is not finished with me yet! Oh, the places I have yet go!
God has BIG plans for each of our lives. And, If we make the right choices and choose the right paths, things will start happening. We will be on our way up...up to a higher dimension of His anointing and power. I don't know about you, but I am ready to join the "high fliers"...I am ready to soar to higher heights in His anointing and power. ♥
