Overheard

Tonight as I was cooking dinner, the kids were working on refining their memory verse for Bible Study Fellowship.  This week's verse was Deuteronomy 10:12-13: 

" And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God ask of you but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him, to love him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul,  and to observe the Lord’s commands and decrees that I am giving you today for your own good?"

The memory verse is always a bit of a stretch for Jude.  He's a first grader, but a very young one.  So tonight as Lydia and Joel were finalizing their memorization, Jude was still struggling to get it right. He suggested that Lydia put the verse to a song so it would be easier for him.  "That's a good idea," I thought to myself as I chopped veggies.

Lydia said to Jude, "O.K.  We need to think of music to put it to."  Then Jude suggested, "How about jazz?"
