BALLOONS TO GOD
There are better things to do than surf the net...like play in the snow, go to church and send up a heilium balloon in God's name. How: well, we get all the presents on christmas day, but all God gets is our prayer and a bunch of songs sung to him. The kids can change that by sending up one balloon on christmas with a prayer tied to the string.....the prayer cannot contain any flimsy requests like a toy or money. Here is what I'm talking about:
First go to a birthday party store and get plain gold or christmas colored ballons.
Get a paper punchers.
Write your favorate prayer on the long skinny piece of paper.
The prayer should come from your favorate quote from your bible....or make up a prayer of your own......or say hello to a deceased reletive.
String the paper and tie it around the hole (tie it tight).
Get the heilium tank and have a professional grown-up to fill it. (Heilium makes balloons fly).
Go outside and make sure no wires or trees are in the way....OR your family can dive to a ball field and then whisper that prayer with your eyes clothes and your heart wide open.
Finally....release the balloon or balloons!
This is a gift you can persanally give him up close and personal. It's highly recomended that you tell everyone you know so they can do this with you....you can all drive to the open field even the night before christmas and release the balloons.
This is where you'd release a good balloon at the holidays.
Show God you care and send him/her a nice present....your heart and soul.
This is where you can send off the balloons if you live in NYC in the winter. After all.....the book that the stautue has in her arm has some of the same ideas God had for us; Feeding the hungry....aiding the poor and uplifting the weary. I can never understand the huddled masses part of it though.
