REMEMBERING

Today in Assembly,I read a poem which explained the significance of the poppy in a way suitable for children to understand.It ended with a mummy crying and her little boy asking why.She told him that she felt sad because people were so busy with their lives,that they had forgotten the importance of Remembrance Day.Sadly there are so many families who will never have difficulty remembering,because of lost loved ones.Yet we must always reach out to those who are sad and show the compassion of Christ.I feel blessed to know that God can really soften our hearts towards the situations of others and pray that He'll keep me remembering not only this Sunday,but always.
