If Only More People Had This Child's Perspective

Posted in Inspiration and Meditation

The following was an emal forward I received today, and while generally ignore these, this one spoke volumes to me.

Enjoy!

UNITED STATES MAP - Short But Good!

A father wanted to read a magazine but was being bothered by his little 
girl, Shelby. She wanted to know what the United States looked like.

Finally, he tore a sheet out of his new magazine on which was printed the 
map of the country. Tearing it into small pieces, he gave it to Shelby 
and said, 'Go into the other room and see if you can put this together. 
This will show you our whole country today.'

After a few minutes, Shelby returned and handed him the map, correctly 
fitted and taped together. The father was surprised and asked how she had 
finished so quickly. 'Oh,' she said, 'on the other side of the paper is a 
picture of Jesus. When I got all of Jesus back where He belonged, then 
our country just came together.'
