A Pocket Full of Tricks

The teacher’s in his element,
His kids are having fun,

They’re running all about his room
Like Satan shot someone,

A classroom full of aeroplanes,
He knows will turn out right,

For after all, his kids must learn
About the rules of flight,

A pocket full of candy bars
Is sure amazing grace,

It’s sure amazing how they work
To get kids in their place,

Now, eyes are closed and heads are bowed,
It’s time to come in prayer,

“So thank you, Lord, for everyone
And all they’ve had to share...

I want you guys to think about
What good things GOD has done,

And know, for sure, GOD is glad
When serving Him is fun.”

How nice and how different from some of the old teachings where we obeyed because of fear. Love Joyce

(sigh) Oh Robert, I find it wonderful how there is always a way to illustrate His illustrious love to any child or faithless soul, somehow there is a method, a noctrum to any heart! (big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Robert, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Amen! And in my opinion serving Him is fun!
