100 Word Challenge for Grown Ups – Week # 82

This week’s 100-word story prompt from Julia:

” … looking at all of that chocolate …”

My story:

SONY DSCCHOCOLATE IN THE NEWS

“Hi!  S. Chocolate Bunny here, reporting to you from the National Easter Egg Hunt on the White House Lawn. There are at least 600 kids here trying their luck.

“Whew! It’s hot for this time of year! Sun’s really beating down. Wish I’d worn a hat.

“In past years, the President gave each participant a big chocolate bunny at the close of the event, and just looking at all that chocolate encouraged competitiveness. However, this year Rabbits United challenged that practice, so … uh … whew, it’s hot! … so he’ll be … giving … candy … e … eggs … in … instead.

“Whew! … So-o-o-o-o-o … h-o-t! … m … mel-l-l-t-i-i-i-n-n-n-g-g-g-g ….”

“Hey, Billy, look! A big puddle of chocolate! Let’s have some!”

Easter Morning From a Child’s Point of View

I have a very dear friend who is a children’s author and illustrator. I am particularly fond of one picture she created, depicting the power of Jesus’ resurrection from a heavenly angle, as a little child might best relate to it. I’m sharing it here in the hope that it adds to your joy on this delightful Resurrection Day!

Weekly Photo Challenge: Arranged # 2

My church has a small room designated as a prayer chapel, where people can go specifically to pray during the week and on Sundays, before and during the services. This group of crosses was carefully chosen and “arranged” across one wall of the chapel to help those who enter the room focus on Jesus Christ and the power of His complete salvation.
