In The Little Things


In our everyday things, everyday lives
He's there.
I spent an afternoon this week with my sister and my mom hitting some thrift shops around town. I didn't see Jesus in that pendant until days later. Made me wonder how many days go by when I haven't seen Him in the little things all around me. Let's go on a scavenger hunt this week. Let's look at our treasures, our favorite things, our homes, our healed and broken relationships, our conversations...
(Mr. Blessing thought I sounded a bit like a fanatic when he read my post so I'm updating it to assure you that the pendant really was created with a Jesus face in it. I don't normally see faces carved in the mash potatoes or get secret codes from my newspaper, etc.)

  3. p.s. are you completely out of calenders? They look wonderful, and I would love to purchase one, if any more are available.

  4. Wonderful sentiments, I always think of Mary & Joseph when Jesus was 12 years old...and they went a day's journey without Him...
    That usually pulls me up short.
    Today would be my mom's birthday.
    So I am more aware of His Presence to comfort and console...
    Have a joyful Thanksgiving...

  10. Hi Polly ~ that scripture is a great promise from Him - thankfully. He never forgets about us.

    I think it was last week that I signed up as your follower but I din't have time that day to leave a note to let you know. Come see me soon. And I'd be honored if you'd consider following me also.
