Re-learning kindergarten lessons
In his book “All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten” by Robert Fulghum wrote, “Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there in the sand pile at Sunday school.” Let’s see what re-learning we may need to do:
- Share everything (Acts 4:32). Everything we have comes from God, and we are only sharing what is already his.
- Play fair (Philippians 2:3). We need to lay aside selfishness and treat others with respect and common courtesy.
- Don’t hit people (Luke 6:29). Let’s leave all vengeance to God. Positive good is our weapon in the face of evil.
- Clean up your own mess (2 Corinthians 11:9). We have to take responsibility for our own actions.
- Don’t take things that are not yours (Ephesians 4:28). We wouldn’t be one of the corrupt countries if we only take this elementary lesson well.
- Say you’re sorry when you hurt somebody (Luke 6:37). This may b difficult on the ego but that’s why we’re called to be Christians.
- Take a nap every afternoon (Hebrews 4:11). Entering into God’s rest nurtures our relationship with Him.
