How To Slay A Giant With Love

.....Laughter; It's Good Medicine! Joy! Joy! Joy!

1. Always take rope with you. You never know if you'll need it : )
2. Don't forget your rock. (The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer.2 Samuel 22:2)
3. When all else seems to fail and you've reached the bottom of your ideas and you feel drained of inspiration; sing something really loud. (I'm thanking you God out loud in the streets singing your praises in town and country. The deeper your love, the higher it goes. Every cloud is a flag of faithfulness. Psalm 54:9)
4. Ask if your giant likes big hearts filled with chocolates...not my personal favorite at all...but ask...you'll get to know something of your giant. (for the words says this...My yoke is easy and my burden is light. Matthew 11:30...so loving your giant can't be that hard : )
5. Call your giant- everyone has cell phones these days...even in giant land. (....and they talked together of all these things which happened. Luke 24:14)
6. Do a bouncing cheer to encourage your giant; it will take the game in a new and blessed direction. (...The Lord gave you authority for edification and not for your destruction. 2 Corinthians 10:8 (and) ...speak edification and exhortation and comfort to men. 1 Corinthians 14:3 (and) ...Let all  things be done for edification. 1 Corinthians 14:26)
7. As you are walking along push your giant in the river (but not for harm; he knows how to swim) and its certain as he rises from the river he will be more pliable! It's a guarantee! (...woah...Word has much to say here...Let us all repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall received the gift of the Holy Spirit. Acts 2:38 (and) ...they laid hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit. Acts 8:17 (and) ...out of his innermost being shall flow rivers of living water. John 7:38-39) Woah...Glory!!!
8. Pretend with your giant that he is on a tropical island and make your giant a frozen slushy drink...the kind with an umbrella...always helps : ) Drink! Drink! Drink! Be being filled with the Spirit. Ephesians 5:18 says!
 9. Give your giant spy glasses....sometimes, just like us- even through great heights; it's hard to see things far and near. (There they saw (the descendants of Anak came from the giants) and we are like grasshoppers in our own sight and so we are in their sight. Numbers 13:33) 
10. If you can get close enough, rub your giants temples. It's relaxing. (The word says healing is for everyone; near and far....for by His stripes you were healed. 1 Peter 2:24 : )
11. Send your giant a sweet card in the mail. Even giants have a heart and like to be told how much you care. Hallmark is always a good choice. And it sends the very best. The Word is life!
12. Show your giant your collections of things to make conversation...ya know; bugs, leafs, seashells, stamps, books, rocks...whatever will help your giant (think on all things true, noble, just, pure, lovely, of good report and those things of virtue and that are praiseworthy. Philippians 4:8)
13. Help to cast off everything that might be daunting to the heart or mind of your giant....(Casting down all imaginations that set itself up against the knowledge of God ...1 Corinthians 10:5 (and) ....be transformed by the renewing of your mind....Romans 12:2)
14. Let your giant do something nice for you...let him pick the fruit high up in the tree. It may be too high for you to reach without assistance. That may be why you are shorter. Just rest and live!
15. When the frisbee lands on the roof; lend a ladder to your giant. It will let him know you don't always have all the answers and eventually you will figure out that your giant is everything he looked to be and didn't need the ladder. God loves a humble and contrite spirit!
16. Even if you don't like to shop; go along with your giant. He will appreciate someone accompanying him to the Big and Tall store : ) (Blessed are the peacemakers...they shall see God)
17. Share a cup of coffee. I am sure that giants like Starbucks or they wouldn't have invented Venti : )
18. Sing him a song and make sure it's not a lullaby. (...suddenly there was a sound; a mighty rushing wind and it filled the whole house where they were...Acts 2:2)
19. While your giant is low enough to reach; get out the rope you now need and wrap it around his legs and arms. Place duct tape over his mouth so you won't be interrupted. (You know...it has a 100 uses after all : ) Grab a microphone. Now - Shout so loud it breaks the sound barrier "I LOVE YOU!"
20. Give glory to God the Father that the Victory is for you and for me and for as many that are far off- and that you have successfully slain your giant...in love of course!

Joy! Joy! Joy!
