Walk.

Ephesians.

For we are his workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should WALK in them.

Now this I say and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer WALK as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds...they have become callous and have given themselves up to sensuality, greedy to practice every kind of impurity. But that is not the way you learned Christ!

Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children. And WALK in Love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

Look carefully then how you WALK, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time because the days are evil.

Grace be with all who love our Lord Jesus Christ with love incorruptible.

Purple tutu.

The yellow balloon bounced out of the small fountain onto the green grassy lawn followed closely by a head of long brown curls. The rascal balloon was quickly apprehended by two little hands and promptly returned to it's perch atop the bubbling water. Bright orange tee-shirt, purple tutu, white hair clip, flying across the sunny maze of sidewalk and turf.

I wanted to be her. I want a purple tulle skirt and an orange tee. I want to splash, carefree in the fountain. She was supremely happy. Not worried or distracted. She is contented just to watch the water fall through her fingers with her two moppy haired brothers. I want to run and skip and twirl.

The great thing is, that I can. I can twirl till my heart is content. I can laugh and skip and find joy in the feeling of grass between my toes if I stop and take notice. The only thing I'm missing is the purple tutu.

And he said: "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 18:3-4
