Today’s Thought “Everybody Is A Star…” G. Ward
Galatians 6:4
But let each one test his own work, and then his reason to boast will be in himself alone and not in his neighbor.
When I was in kindergarten and after having a good day the teacher would place a star on my forehead (a small colored one with adhesive, once moisture was applied). My efforts in great citizenship aimed to receive the star so as to create a boast, not because it was dutiful. I recall many of the other children’s sadness as their names weren’t called in the same. My compassion for the others (in their lack) was non-existent and compelled my smiling to be antagonistic joy.
My youngest grandson is now in kindergarten and I’d like to think I’ve evolved from immaturity of old; but any failure on my part to inspire another towards excellence through exemplary behavior first found in me is without heavenly recognition, because the diligence due mankind emanates from the highest, preeminent theological reality that insists Holy God is at watch.
