LEGO MIRACLE

by Robin

We had a most amazing thing happen the other morning and I really wanted to share it. Saturday night, the kids had all their lego & bionicle bins out & opened across the bedroom floor. It was such an eye sore but it was still 6:30 pm and I had asked them to please pick it up before bed.

Well, then, we got into the movie Ice Age and enjoyed family time together, but it was after 10pm went the movie ended and we had church the next morning. We left the bins out & stuff all over the place as they went to bed. I knew it was a disaster in the making but sleep was more important at this point. We have a bad habit of not wanting to get up Sunday mornings. I think they call it "temptation". LOL

Anyhow, Sunday morning rolled around and sure enough, we hit snooze until we had only 30 minutes left for getting out the door on time. Sound like your Sunday morning yet? We rushed & routine went out the window. The puppies managed to find a loop hole (AKA open door) and went in search of little lego pieces to chew on. In all the chaos to stop their evil plan (ha ha), we had a little accident. Well, no, a big accident. Bins were tipped over and thousands if not tens of thousands of pieces landed over every single inch of the floor.

I sighed. There was nothing else to do but grab shoes, close the door, crate the pups and be on our way. And I might add...... late to church. Are you stressed out yet? Can you just imagine the tension headache? Keep reading.

A couple hours later, after much worship, I had forgotten about those legos until we were around the corner from home. I tried not to whine in my petition with the boys but they knew their first task upon coming home was to clean up the mess. Then, as Andrew opened the door first and Simon Peter followed quickly behind him, they could see that all the legos had somehow, randomly, come together and began forming bonds. There were buildings, little cars, gas stations, people walking around, ...... really a whole city that laid before our eyes. How did this happen? How did we go from chaos to order? Billions of pieces to a city?

Are you still wondering?

Wonder no more. The answer is simple. It didn't happen. It couldn't happen in a 12 x 15' room no more than it could in the universe.

"In the beginning, God created ...." Gen 1:1

We do have the makings for chaos in that room, but thankfully, my boys did pick up their room. I was just messin' with you to make my point. (smile)
