Saturday and Sunday we spent the days hanging out at the house un-decorating. As I was putting my stuff away, I wanted to take a few more pics. The first picture is of an ornament my sweet friend gave me. I love the twist on the old saying or song, "Jesus Loves Me This I Know". How about "Jesus Knows Me This I Love". He knows me....and He still loves me....
I was looking over some of my notes from church and I happen to stumble on a quote from someone...I usually write really fast and I don't always write who the quotes are from....
Here is the quote: "Jesus loves us just the way we are. There is nothing we can do that will make Him love us less. Do we love others this way or do we keep a list of wrongs"? Aren't you glad our relationship with Jesus is not performance based? If that were the case, most of us would be in a world of trouble. Do we love others that way? With performance in mind? If we are being honest, I would think that most of us do this without even knowing that we do...
I want to love intentionally and try not to do this to my kids, husband and friends...that is one of the goals I have for this year.
I want to have "My Father's Eyes".
Onto my blessings....

ReplyDeleteLove it
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots and I agree on the texture of the pumpkin. I can imagine feeling it's rough stem!
ReplyDeleteI'm with Tracy, love the color/texture of the pumpkin!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad my relationship with Christ is not performance based!
Funny, I thought of you when I took the shot of my pumpkin. It is still hanging in there...
DeleteI really appreciate the thoughts you shared! I need to find an ornament like that as a reminder.
