Every Good Gift . . .


Every time I see Caroline, she gives me a gift. 


Although her brother usually beats her to my door on Fun Fridays at Gigi’s House, she’s fast on his heels. The tiny girl, “no bigger than a squirrel,” as my husband says, greets me with smiling eyes that sparkle with mischief.

  2. "Every time my heavenly Father and I spend time together, He gives me a gift. Sometimes it’s a sparkling jewel from His collection. (Don’t all kings have jewel collections?) A gold nugget from His Word, a gemstone of promise, or a sparkling insight into life." Beautiful, Lori!

  3. Posts from dear friends, just like this one and Danielle's "Dancing Shoes" (by Mrs. Diane Virginia), are two that jump out for me this week. Another would be spending the week at home with my wife. Each day unfolds with countless gifts from our good Father; and I am coming to treasure each of them just a bit more with each passing day. Thank you for sharing your gift of little Miss Caroline with us.

    1. I think one of the unexpected delights of growing a bit older (just a bit) is that we begin, as God's Word describes, "to number our days." This helps us hold even the simplest joys to heart and not take a one for granted. God is so good to us.

    2. Well, replied, Lori. Yes, as we age, we do "number our days" more. Such greater insight comes!
