page 92, Charity and its Fruits, Jonathan Edwards


Do you think the injuries you have received from your fellow-man
 are more than you have offered to God? 
 Has your enemy been more base,
 more unreasonable, more ungrateful, than you have to the High and Holy One? 
 Have his offences been more heinous or aggravated,
 or more in number, than yours has been against your Creator, Benefactor, and Redeemer?
  Have they been more provoking and exasperating
 than your sinful conduct has been to him who is the author of all our mercies,
 and to whom you are under the highest obligations?

My Favorite Child

I wish I had all the pictures I wanted, to go with this blog post........because I know a *picture paints a thousand words*, but for a large part of our family's life, old fashion cameras and old fashion pictures were being used.  So, many of the pictures that would help paint this post are somewhere in boxes and books.  It would take a month of Sundays to find them all so  I will just have to count on your imagination and my memory! FAVORITE: most liked, preferred above all others Sara, you were my favorite.  You were our first baby and we were so excited for you.  Your hair was perfect for me to learn how to braid and you always were very still for me.  You were the first little girl I got to dress up and put lacy socks on.  You were such a fun little girl to read to.  You memorized the books we had and it was a big part of our day to read with each other.  *where is the bear when the wind blows cold?*.    You have always been interested in the *family tree*, dates, p
