What a nice way to begin an evening. Thank you. I have no doubt but that God really is under Kevin's bed!

Two points to consider, which Kevin seems to get pretty good: 1. Don't sweat the small sh!t 2. Compared to eternity, ITS ALL SMALL SH!T

In my own recent and humble musings, I too have come to the conclusion that most of us - especially myself - are very busy doing very unimportant things.

Our son is a great responsibility for my wife and I . . .

You make me feel so inadequate. I should have my butt kicked for every time I complained about my kids. God bless you and give you the strength to meet all those physical demands. You guys are the greatest!

You're welcome. This helped me see the folly of so many of my ways. I was hoping it would bless some other FReepers like it blessed me. Guess I was right. For victory & freedom!!!

You've seen it before? Wow! What a blessing this Kevin has been. I just got this email today from my deaf pals in Hawaii and thought I'd share it. Terrific!

What a great story about your friend, Mike. How sweet! There's something miraculous about these guys, huh. Guess they commune with Angels while the rest of us slobs are clueless. Kevin and Mike are spiritual giants.

I knew in my heart that a purer soul could not be found.

I just had a floodgate of my own. Thanks for sharing that with us. Wow! I'm so glad I posted this. It blessed me sooooo much and made me ponder my own stupidity.

God is under all of our beds but we never take the time to say hi.

Life doesn't get much better than when you're seven years old. Kevin is blessed to be perpetually seven, and even more blessed to be so close to God.

Lucky guy.

I have so much more...... and so much less. Thanks for posting this, just when I needed a lift, I found this. God does provide for all our needs. 8^)

Ya know, I think the world would be a much better place if more people had that kind of attitude...

My theory is we are not at all far from God.

When we are born we are very close, I imagine babies and the very young commune with God continually, but as we get older and we become more involved with the "world" we slip away from God and into the worldly things of this life.

If we could just be still, turn of the noise of this life, worries, strife, all to do about nothing, we could hear the whisper of the voice of God.

We've been away and in this world so long, it's tough to shut off.

Kevin and others have been blessed to stay where they are and continue communing with our Lord.

1 KINGS 19:11

The Lord said, "Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord , for the Lord is about to pass by."

Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord , but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake.

12 After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper.

13 When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave. Then a voice said to him, "What are you doing here, Elijah?"

Makes you stop and think, doesn't it? I am taken aback by this simple message of profound truth. Wow! What a guy this Kevin is! God bless you, FReeper pal.
