31 Words of Encouragement - Day 23 - COMMON




Today is Day 23 of the "write31days" challenge.  Once again I am linking up with Kate Motaung for the FMF free writes.  Be sure to check out each day's post here.


In Job 34, the scripture says:

"...Isn't this just common sense - as common as the sense of taste - to put our head together and figure out what's going on here?"

Common sense?!  IS sense...common?  What is common about sense?  Or taste?

According to the Webster's Student Dictionary, common sense is - simply - "ordinary good sense"!

And common"Belonging to everyone; to the public in general."

So, that would mean that sense is common - or belonging to the public in general!

Right?  Well, not necessarily!  




This image certainly leaves me to think that not everybody has this common sense!  Not sure if I do or not...




There are many things that we may have in common with others...

* Scrapbooking or crafting in general.
* Reading.
* Writing or blogging.
* Sports - watching or participating in.
* Watching movies...love Hallmark!
* Fishing.
* Singing or playing an instrument.
* And many many more!





Having something in common is what brings us together with those who become our friends!




What are some of the things you have in common with your friends?

Share them in the comments!

  1. Sometimes I don't follow what my common sense dictates and it is always bad news.

  2. I long for a time when Common Sense is common again! ;) Things I have in common with friends varies with the friends but that would include: The Lord, praying, worship, writing, painting, walking, photography, married life and parenting, etc! (Oh - and coffee! Let's not forget coffee!)
