Lessons from a Merry-go-round

We are working on finding God in the everyday things of life.  In the lot next to our home there is a small park.  The kids enjoyed playing on the merry-go-round so we took some time to think about what lessons we can learn.


1.  The merry-go-round keeps on going round and round just like God's blessings keep on coming and coming.

2.  The merry-go-round can't go on it's own.  It's needs someone to get it going and keep it going.  I can't do it on my own either.  I need Someone (God!) to get me going and keep me going.  I need Him to sustain my momentum!

3.  This merry-go-round is ugly on the outside, but strong and sturdy on the inside.  It matters what is on the inside of us also (our characters).

4.  We will be safer if we hold on to the merry-go-round bars, just like we will be safer if we hold on to Jesus.
