Good morning, this

is Topher from Washington Church of Christ, bringing you a positive message

minute.

Let me take you back

to one of those great childhood memories with just one word.  Crayon. 

Whether you pronounce it "Crown", "Cran", or

"Cra-yon", these little wax sticks were a privilege to use and our

artwork from them was masterful to behold in those toddler and elementary

years.  How many hours did we spend

picking out just the right colors that fit this curve and that shape?  Crayons were a way of expressing ourselves

and we got to choose from 12 or 108 different expressions. 

Disney thought the same thing too!

As we grow older, I think Crayons are a lot like our attitudes.  We still get to choose the one we want for

every situation.  Joy, Anger, Peace,

Depression, Mercy, Frustration.  These

are some of our colors of expression.  

I'm working on a new

favorite crayon, you know, that go-to crayon that you could use in any

situation, and I'd like to share this color through a Bible verse.  Paul says this in Philippians 4. "In any and every circumstance, I

have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance, and need.  I have learned in whatever situation I am, to

be content." 

Today, let's try out

a new color from that crayon box of responses, because it just might be your

favorite that fits every circumstance. 

Try to enjoy being content today. 

You'll be glad you did.
