Pilgrims On The Way


our old theologians used to make a lot out of the distinction between God's knowledge and ours...they distinguished...between a knowledge of God in himslef (a theology of glory), which was unavailable to us, and a revelation of God accommodated to our weakness (a theology of the cross). they called "our theology" theologia viatorum, "the theology of pilgrims." while pilgrims haven't already arrived, they know where they're headed and are even now on their way by God's grace. -Michael Horton

We're getting festive!

"Why do I do this to myself" I ask everytime I try to do some elaborate craft or project with a couple of two year olds! The idea is fun; the outcome is usually satisfactory; the process can be absolutely hair-pulling!! Of course, my hands are doing most of the work.
But I have seen progress in my attitude: I no longer say "let's do a craft!" and then proceed to sit the kids beside me to observe my handi-work! I now let them get in there, sticky (me, them, the walls), licky (their fingers), picky (their noses), and then licky again...
That's what fun is all about, isn't it? Doing things together and enjoying whatever each of us can offer to the task!
