What is the story of lion and the lamb

“The lamb with the lion” – often a paraphrase from Isaiah, and more closely quoted as “the lion and lamb”, “a child will lead them”, and the like – are an artistic and symbolic device, most generally related to peace. The symbol is used in both Christianity and Judaism to represent the Messianic Age.

In Christianity, the lamb represents Christ as both suffering and triumphant; it is typically a sacrificial animal, and may also symbolize gentleness, innocence, and purity. When depicted with the LION, the pair can mean a state of paradise. In addition, the lamb symbolizes sweetness, forgiveness and meekness.

Time for a little Club Sheba

Sheba, I’m sure bunnie has a warm safe home nearby, so not to worry. Nice there are Foxes around. Hope you and Poppy enjoy the pink moon.

Very pretty Easter box picture.

Wishing those who celebrate Easter a very happy one!

Don’t forget the Friday Night Show with Amy and Adam 🙂

I hope your grandson have a great Easter and enjoy all that day has to bring.

MEOW and Quack Quack! Happy Easter!

Spoiling Our Children

Spoiling our children with new things stems from a feeling of lack in our own childhood.

One of the greatest things about children is that they have the ability to entertain themselves for long periods of time with something as simple as a cardboard box, a container, or a set of measuring spoons. It makes you wonder why we feel the need to buy them so many toys that they won’t even have time to play with them all before they grow out of them. Often, if we take the time to question our compulsion to constantly give our children new toys and clothes, and to spoil them with food that is not even good for them, we will find that we are trying to fill up the space to avoid our own difficult feelings and pain. If you feel yourself wanting to spoil your child with material possessions, take a moment and see if you can feel where your motivation is coming from.

We may be inundating our children with things they don’t need out of our own desire to create a feeling of abundance that was lacking in our own childhood, or out of a need to feel liked by our children. Both of these motives tend to be unconscious, stemming from unresolved issues from our own upbringing or even our adult life. These unresolved feelings naturally come up when we find ourselves in the role of a parent, often as our child reaches the age we were when these traumas were most pronounced. Spoiling your children will not save you or make your pain disappear, only acknowledging and working on your emotional issues can do that. What our children really need us to provide for them is both a sense of safety and a sense of freedom and love of which there can never be too much. If we are able to do this well, material possessions need not take center stage.

We all want to provide our children with a good and happy life, but most of us know deep down that material possessions play a very small role. We confuse our children when we seek to make them happy through buying them things. When we do this, they take our cue that happiness comes in the form of toys and treats, rather than in the joy of being alive, surrounded by love, and free to explore the world.

@taci,

Enjoy the long weekend. I have not seen my bunny due to thunder storms last night.
I mean the heavens lit up. I had to shut off the computer and just listened to the rain
and thunder. I hope the bunny took cover. We have foxes in the area and some are
staying under people’s decks. Yikes! I do not have deck but my backyard is pretty big.

I keep Poppy close. Happy Easter and enjoy the view. ♥ Taci I received my Andrew Lessman
Products and if you ordered check your box carefully I got a 20% off coupon during the
month of may. I intend to use is wisely. 🙂 Thanks HSN.
