I found some great bible verses.... Verses about Youth: Job 29:4 "As I was in the days of my youth , when the secret of God [was] upon my tabernacle;" Job 33:25 "His flesh shall be fresher than a child's: he shall return to the days of his youth :" Psalms 71:5 "For thou [art] my hope, O Lord GOD: [thou art] my trust from my youth ." Psalms 71:17 "O God, thou hast taught me from my youth : and hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works." Ezekiel 16:60 "O God, thou hast taught me from my youth : and hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works." Hosea 2:15 "And I will give her her vineyards from thence, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope: and she shall sing there, as in the days of her youth , and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt." 1 Timothy 4:12 "Let no man despise thy youth ; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity."


Verses about Summer: Genesis 8:22 "While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease." Psalms 74:17 "Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made summer and winter. " Proverbs 30:25 "The ants [are] a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the summer ;" Amos 8:1 "Thus hath the Lord GOD shewed unto me: and behold a basket of summer fruit." Mark 13:28 "Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near": Luke 21:30 "When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand."

Memory Books and Journaling "And the LORD said unto Moses, Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua:" ~~Exodus 17:14 ~~

Journal: Sometimes when life seems to get a little hectic we tend to feel lost because of the demands that are placed on us. Try keeping a personal journal as a means of keeping in touch with yourself. You can right down your dreams or your thoughts or if you made a new friend. You can buy a blank book at any craft store or you can make your own with that creative imagination that everyone tells you that you have. You can always add little keepsakes to your journal: pressed flowers, pictures or even a special email that you received from a friend. Have fun, explore and create!

Family Photo Calendar: Select 12 family photos. These can be of any occasion. Make a color photo copy of each photo, enlarged to the size of the calendar page. Carefully clue one on to each page. This can really make a nice gift, especially for those boys and girls going away to college in the fall.

Can I show you my Grand Kids?: How many times have you heard that? *smile* Well, it's about time these grandparents have their own photo album. Don't just stop with the pictures, we can fill these with awards, hand-drawn pictures by the youngsters and any little personal notes that were sent to grandma and grandpa. This is sure to be a BIG hit with all grandparents.

The Love of our Lord should be at the center of our homes. We need to let our children see us reading and studying the Word of God. Say their prayers out loud and together so that they will learn how to pray. Saying grace at the table should be a natural occurrence something that flows out of a grateful heart.

Let's say Grace: This is a table grace that I wrote for my kids some time ago, they always enjoyed saying this before meals .........
