As the date of Easter fluctuates annually, the liturgical calendar is dynamically arranged, resulting in the absence of the 10th Sunday of Ordinary Time in certain years. As a result, some contributors’ archived resources are not available. When new content is posted by our contributors, it will posted throughout the week.

Families that LoveForgiving Yourself

Families that Love

OBJECTS: Picture of the hippo and tortoise:

We can learn a lot from animals. This is a heart-warming story that I would like to share with you: A baby hippopotamus, named Owen, was swept down a river and into the ocean when a tsunami struck and then was tossed back to shore by waves and landed on the coast of Kenya in Africa.

Wildlife workers rescued him and took him to a shelter where he was adopted by a one hundred year old tortoise that acted as his mother. (Show picture.) Don’t they look happy together?

Baby hippos like to be with and play with their mothers until they are about four years old. These two, the hippo and the tortoise, although very different from each other, are fast friends that eat, sleep and swim together. The tortoise likes being a mother and Owen likes his new mother. The two of them formed a family. How wonderful!

Forgiving Yourself

OBJECT:  Piano music, woodworker’s tools, pictures of sea life.

I know a little girl who felt very upset about something that happened for which she was responsible. She accidentally dropped and broke a beautiful glass swan that belonged to her mother. It was a special gift that had been given to her mother by her mother’s grandmother.

This little girl felt sad because she caused the accident, even though her mother did not punish her or say anything to make her feel that way.

Sometimes we do or say something that seems so hurtful we think we will never be forgiven. At other times, when we are angry, we may intentionally hurt another person. Afterwards, when we think about what we have done, we are ashamed of our actions and feel miserable.

This is when we need good advice. In the Bible we learn that we can be forgiven of our sins if we truly feel sorry, ask for God’s forgiveness, and try to make things right. What a blessing. We don’t have to continue to carry a heavy load of guilt.
