One of the BASIC CHANGES we can make in our family thinking is to expand the way we treat occasions like birthdays, graduations, holidays, weddings, and other special events. How can we add to each of these occasions intentional moments of blessing? Can we find a way to include an appropriate message in each one? Where can we start? Some blessings involve tangible gifts (thats probably where the idea of giving gifts originated), but most blessings are precious, truthful words. A parents heart speaks into his or her childs heart. We often unconsciously attempt to accomplish this by the cards we choose to give. We find one with a message that seems to fit how we feel or what we see in our child. These messages can be blessings. The current interest in scrap-booking tells us a lot about our instinct to bless. We want people to know that we value who they are. -NLT Leadership
