One Thousand Gifts *126 - 133*

At Sunday Service our pastor continued his series
"Inside Out" part 9 - Deciding What is Most Important"
This scripture (Matt 6:21) was discussed:
"For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."


...When thinking of my dearest treasures...

126. My walk in God's presence...
127. Jesus leading me on.

128. Many others are walking along side of me...family ~ friends ~ this body of Christ.



129. My husband, Chris, so close, we are one as we walk.


130. Children, now adults, they are friends and fellow travelers.


131. My sister ~ closer every step of this walk together. I am so grateful she is in my life.


132. My father, almost 85, at his kitchen window with day's first prayer, and on his knees at bedside before sleep. He walked with me for my first steps ~ and continues along side me in this journey.


133. Brothers and families ... walking together.


We, with God in us, are treasure to one another.
trésor ~ tesoro ~ treasure

~All is Gift ...... All is Blessing

A prayer today for sister

  6. What precious treasures Maria. Our children are grown too - and such a blessing. My Dad is 89 years old and he and my 85 year old Mother are also treasures in my life. I really loved your list.
    The rhubarb cake was one my Mom baked the other day. We are going to visit them tomorrow evening and I will get the recipe for you!!
