Post-Easter-Post

Today at church I heard a great children's sermon.  The regular sermon was good too, but I was struck by the children's sermon because the pastor did something I hadn't seen before. He told the kids he was going to talk to them about God's love, and sharing their faith.  And he proceeded to show them a sheet of paper on which he had printed, many times, the words "God's Love":

He asked the kids to count the corners on the paper (four, naturally) then pulled out a pair of "Sunday School scissors"..

...and proceeded to cut off a corner of the paper to share God's Love with one of the kids. He then asked them how many corners he had left - they said three. But of course, when he counted, he had three he had started with, plus two corners he had created by cutting off the fourth corner - so five corners. He got up to 10 corners by sharing God's Love, and he also showed the girl who took the first corner that she now had 3 corners, and when she shared with a neighbor, each of them had three corners. A great illustration, I thought.

A few other post-Easter thoughts - I spent Good Friday in St. Andrews, and it was an absolutely gorgeous day.  Between that day and sunny days in Dundee,  I have been taking a ton of pictures, some Easter-related, and some just arty.  A few of the more Easter-related are below.
