Memories. I’m giving thanks for memories. And the gray matter that holds them for me. :) You know what they say: “a mind is a terrible thing to waste.”
I have particularly thought of my Momma this evening. We attended a wedding. There was music. She loved music. She had a natural rhythm.
Memories. Treasure them. And mind your mind.
Romans 8:5-8 King James Version
5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. 6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. 8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. source
Without them, my view from my dining table is color in vague shapes.
Oh, I can see well enough to get around in familiar places but there is so much I miss this way. I am reminded of the man who went to JESUS for his sight.
Men walking like trees – is that what he said? See Mark 8:24.
Corrective Lens
That’s one thing earth man crafted very well. Albeit even these well-crafted lenses will not enable me to truly see my fellow man or this created world as I am meant to see. I need the CREATOR HIMSELF for that. JESUS. The True Corrector of my sight.
Has He begun to correct your sight?
1 Corinthians 13:12 New Living Translation 12 Now we see things imperfectly, like puzzling reflections in a mirror, but then we will see everything with perfect clarity. All that I know now is partial and incomplete, but then I will know everything completely, just as God now knows me completely. source
We are glad you are here; stay a while, look around, and be encouraged. We estimate there to be over 3,000 posts here at The White Stone Blog. Please know my hope is ALWAYS to help and NEVER harm. I have voiced many opinions and thoughts here since 2007 and by now I MAY NOT EVEN AGREE with all of them and some of my grammar and punctuation likely needs editing. But this is changeless: JESUS is our ONLY Savior and Hope. Do you KNOW Him?
