Threading a Needle
By Hand
Previous -- Next
Wrap the thread around the needle, use your fingers to
press and make a tight fold. Pull it off and place the
needle on the thread guiding the thread through the needle.
-or-
Give the thread a twist, squeeze the thread tightly between
your thumb and forefinger and push the thread through the
eye of the needle. *I prefer this method! If you still
can't get it to go through, try snipping off a little
thread at the end as just the process of trying to thread
a needle can sometimes cause the end of the thread to
fray and make it difficult to thread.

Ministering To Others
It is amazing what we can learn from those around us if we just look.
For instance, even raking a yard, delivering a meal, or spending an afternoon with an older person in your life might provide a wealth of learning opportunities. They are real living history.
I'll never forget the day that I sat in my Great-Grandmother's bedroom brushing her hair. I think it was perhaps the first glimpse I had of the experience this dear woman held. For her, I was pampering her and keeping her company. For me, she was sharing her memory of first hearing the reports of the sinking of the "unsinkable" Titanic and instilling within a deep respect for the tragedy and sadness of a nation.
You might come across an older man who has vivid war memories to share, or a wise older woman who can share her lessons of running a home and a family during an era when times were tight and there wasn't always "enough to go around".
Ministering to Others is an every day living, every day learning experience that will help others, yes, but the benefit to your child will be immeasurable.
