Blessings on you from the Elliott family! Thank you for subscribing, and we hope you enjoy today’s newsletter. Good morning! I've been re-reading an excellent book called Make It Stick, and it has been reminding me of how our brains learn new things. I am continually in awe of my Creator and how nothing about me or my children is a surprise to Him. He is wise beyond comprehension—yet He promises to give wisdom to me whenever I need it. HalleluYah! My goal is to bring a little bit of Scripture, a sprinkle of encouragement, and a dash of hope to your day. I love a good cup of coffee (brewed like this), but if some other drink is more your style, I'm sure that will work. The point is for you to take a break from crazy living, just long enough for a sip of joy.
Daily Bible Verse"For your mercy is great above the heavens, and your truth

emet—truth; the state of being the case; fact; firmness of strength or skill. Source
For some writing I'm doing, I recently did research into various learning styles and methods of teaching that help children retain information. - When babies are born, they naturally learn by touch (tactile) -- everything goes in their mouths.
- As they begin to move voluntarily, they start learning by movement (kinesthetic).
- As they learn to speak,
they begin to learn by what they hear (auditory), as you'll notice when they learn to follow directions or mimic sounds they hear.
- The last way they learn is by sight (visual), which usually begins about the time they begin to read.
Of course, none of these learning styles is
necessarily better than another or more "biblical" in and of itself. However, I thought it was interesting to see how God "learns" about me and the circumstances I'm in. Continue Reading
