Berry Picking Lessons

One of my favorite summer activities to do with my kiddos is berry picking! 

I love to be outside.  I love to be  with my children.  I love FRUIT especially berries.

 I love to have my freezer stocked with frozen berries to eat on through out the winter.   So....it is a perfect combination for this momma. 

 

 During our picking adventures, I ALWAYS have to wipe down my little ones' faces. 

 When they "help" pick, they go full force into the field to eat.  

They work at it with all their hearts. 

 They are masters at picking and eating.  They love it and have the hands and faces to prove it. 

As they  are picking...eating, I hear  Psalms 34:8  playing in my ears.  It states:

Taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.

 As adults, we fail to be like children.  We get so distracted by living,  serving,  parenting,  and ministering that we fail to breath in the aroma of our Savior. We fail to 

TASTE THE  GOODNESS OF HIS LOVE. 

He longs to wipe our faces.
