A Few of Their Favorite Things

"The law from your mouth is more precious to me than thousands of pieces of silver and gold."  Psalm 119:72


Cheeseburgers ketchup only,
and Iced Double Chocolate mochas.
Texting morning, noon, and night,
and Relient K, Skillet, and Hawk Nelson.
Volleyball, laughing friends, and Twix candy bars.
These are a few of HER favorite things.


Boston Red Sox baseball team,
and warm McChicken sandwiches.
Ebay, Craigslist, garage sales.
and Itunes songs and apps.
Playing ball, video games galore, and BSU Broncos.
These are a few of HIS favorite things.

This is my prayer today:
That God's Word becomes their number one favorite thing, above all else.

Lord, your Word is full of treasures for your children to find.  It speaks of you and your love for us.  As we dig deep, take time to ponder, and study your Word, we get to know you better, and we understand better what you have created us for.  Your Word speaks to every condition.  Lord, I pray that your Word becomes one of our children's "favorite things".  I pray that it becomes something that they would never want to live without, and that they depend on for spiritual food, guidance, and hope for their future.  Thank you for your precious Word, dear Jesus!  It is our heritage forever, and the joy of my heart!
