Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

How To Make Children Like Bible Scriptures On Life

By Jeanette Riggs


It is sometimes a little difficult for trainers to let children take an interest in Bible scriptures on life. First of all, they might find the little ones uncooperative when taking lessons. On the other hand, these little ones might not be able to understand the meaning behind every verses. They might not be able to comprehend it.

Since this is the case, knowing the tips on how they will like the said verses will be helpful. This should lessen the burden the person has to carry in order to spread the Words of the Lord. There are some times that would help the trainer or teacher get the attention of the little ones and turn it to the Holy Scripture.

First, it might be a good idea to turn the verses into a song. Of course, this will require musical talent from the ones who will be teaching the verses. There may be times when personally composing is not possible. It is fine for the person to just pick a song about the Holy Words with a nice beat that the children will love.

Reading some stories from the said Holy Book out loud will surely grab the attention of these children. It is important that the said professional becomes animated according to the feel of the stories. There are numerous interesting stories in this Holy Book. One should not waste it by simply reading in a monotonous voice.

Tell them stories. While it might not be straight from the Holy Scripture, the trainer might want the children to remember a verse by linking an interesting story to it. The person can make up the story personally or turn real stories into something where the children can learn some values from. It will be a good deal.

There is also an appropriate picture book that the person should consider about. Even when it comes to religion, there are lots of publishing houses that publishes picture books aiming for children to understand their faith well. It is also possible for the person to create the picture book himself in order to give it a personal touch.

Show them animated videos. Do not hesitate to show animated videos to the children especially when it is about Jesus. There are lots of these animated videos being sold in the market nowadays. Of course, it is fine to make a personal animated video if the person has the resources, time, and money to do it.

Make them do assignments. Having them do a homework will surely motivate the little ones to read and study the Holy Scripture. Instead of having to force them into it, the person should just consider the possibility of getting the children hooked to the Holy Scripture by themselves. It will surely be worth the try.

There are still other methods to use for this purpose. Just make sure that the person is exerting his or her effort to the right direction. These children should be educated about their faith as early as possible. This is so that they can apply the words in the Bible scriptures on life without any hesitations.
