Details...........

It's almost the weekend, and time for a little reflecting on a "detail." I'm finding that it's in the details, that God often gently guides me on this journey.....

"Our talents are the gift that God gives to us... What we make of our talents is our gift back to God." ~Leo Buscaglia

As I sit here in the computer/sunroom....It strikes me...THE DETAIL, (not the dust:), although the way the sun is shining in here...it COULD be the detail..:)) but it's the SUPPLIES that surround me...Those of you who happen to know me in the 'real' world know that I have a tendency to gravitate to things like

~~paper~~pens~~fonts~~stamps~~ink~~ribbon and trinkets~~quotations~and~more paper~

I have been collecting these goodies for YEARS and they delight me ~ but there is a message here, and when I look closer ~ As always, when I pay attention, I see it.There are so many opportunities in this little 'stash' of mine....there really is. An opportunity to spread LOVE and JOY! To take a simple piece of paper or stamp and turn it into something thoughtful for someone else.....We all have gifts that we need to share with others...this is just a small way I can spread some Joy, Love, Encouragement or Inspiration....

"He who sows sparingly shall also reap sparingly,and he who sows bountifully shall reap bountifully.Every person should give what his heart has decided ~not grudgingly, or from necessity,for God LOVES a cheerful giver."2 Corinthians 9: 6 ~ 7

It's just so much fun to give...and if I change a few words around, it could be my very own SONG...

"This little STASH of mine, I'm gonna let it SHINE,This little STASH of mine, I'm gonna let it SHINE,LET IT SHINE, LET IT SHINE, LET IT SHINE!"

I've got some joy to share....have a wonderful week!

What are your details?

Look at the videos of Paul below at the bottom of yesterdays post. He loved to sing and gave whole audiences his voice. This fellow on LLBN, platform chairman, was so humorous he made everyone in church smile.

Look at the world around you....for instance Lorna's store used to read 'food for thought', what was she trying to say? - good food, health, messages from Christ to choose good food. We sang this song too and after the closing of the video we sang four more verses, thank you Florence.
