There are certain things in life which I believe should never be overlooked.
Simple things, yet they have the deepest meaning…
Something so small as watching a childhood movie like “A Little Princess” can just make me glow inside and out!
I just love simplicity.
I also love tradition, elegance, and timeless with a dash of the countryside thrown into the mix.
I love the smell of rain in
I love the reflection of the sunset on the beach in
I love the view from the cockpit in a plane.
And I love to watch the bustle of the city, but I live for the calm of the country.
There is just something so magnificent about this world. I wish I could see all of it, and really get to know it- life is short!
The Bible study lesson today was on Deuteronomy 8, and remembering that the Lord my God is the reason I can boast, to only boast in him, to not be prideful of anything, and to remember that nothing I have is a result of my works but rather everything, including myself, is the work of the Lord and a gift from Him.
The whole idea of building up treasure in heaven I have never actually grasped, I guess I sort of dismissed it as something that I would never be able to attain anyways, “so why even try,” sort of thing… But I believe the Lord has used these teachings to get my attention and to have me realize that I must strive to be like Christ- I must pursue the impossible, and while I will never be able to attain it, through pursuing Christ in every aspect I will be obeying God, and through obedience I will store up treasures in heaven… My thoughts are so scattered right now, probably in part because it’s well past midnight and my brain went to bed hours ago! (Leaving me behind, what nerve!)
