It's hard to believe we're talking Days 20 and 21...didn't we just start this?
I sometimes think...when I am looking for gifts...I am looking for some great "aha!" moments...
Like the earth will shake and they will come announced, neatly wrapped...
Something out of the ordinary...
But not so...
Day 20 ~ Three Gifts Unconventional
Like this morning...(and I'm not being silly...)
A Q-tip to clean my ears...
A safety pin to fasten the part of the hem of my pants I noticed was torn as I was quickly getting ready for church...
This smooth-writing teal gel pen to take notes this morning as we pored over Hebrews 4:12-13.
Day 21 ~ Three Gifts Undervalued
Turning on my faucet with clean water readily available to drink...(how can we not value what 89% of the rest of world does not have access to?)
Speaking of access...do we realize the gift, the incredible gift, that we can connect from all over the world through the internet...although we may never meet face to face?
And did we value the moment that just passed...and the one we're in now...or are we looking ahead or too numbed to live in this very moment?
These are the baby shoes worn by my Caleb...life, at best, is brief...it all goes so fast...
Value the moments...
Look for God's gifts...
Don't miss a single one...
