~Isaiah 40:8 NIV
I'M SO GLAD GOD DECIDED to put His thoughts and feelings into the written Word!
I love to know that He thinks about us constantly and carries us in the palm of His hand.
When we take time to record memories, we truly give ourselves a gift to be opened over and over again.
We can recall times of laughter, be encouraged by God's faithfulness in difficult situations, and feel a sense of comfort by expressing and managing the emotions He's given to us.
It feels good to revisit the joys and even the struggles in our lives, because God is working in us and building our trust through every circumstance.
We never outgrow His gentle and wise instruction.
We never graduate from the learning process.
The busy summer months are passing quickly once again.
We might all use that realization as a little nudge to begin a photo essay on the days God has given us on earth.
No due dates, no grading scales, simply an opportunity to appreciate the gift of captured memories--
and a chance to allow God to encourage our hearts and remind us of His continued faith--fulness.
A memory filled scrapbook or album is one of most treasured possessions...
and can be one of our greatest teachers.
