Sensing

We are learning about attentiveness right now. I learned something new today (which, by the way, is one reason i love homeschooling, even on the tough days).

Did you know that the sense of hearing is the FIRST of the five senses to function in the womb? And, interestingly enough, it is the LAST sense to stop functioning at death?

I had no idea it was the first sense to work. That was pretty cool. Also, was reminded that the morning  my Dad passed away, he heard God's Word read, and God's praises sung. My Pastor mentioned that i would look back and find that it was a blessing to be there when he went, and today i realized that it truly was.

Thank you, dearest Heavenly Father, for the gift of hearing.
