A Gift Given, Made, Sacrificed...



252.  a gift card (with card) to Nicole at her 'kitchen themed' bridal shower at the Smith's Creek Hall

253.  made 'time' to talk with the farmer about potential plans for the future... exciting...

254.  Sacrificed $ so Jared could have his hair cut at Solutions, for his trip, instead of the buzzer system at home...

...but a gift of sacrifice... do we ever sacrifice? really sacrifice?  Shouldn't I have been thinking about the gift received rather than what I might sacrifice?

Perhaps time with our kids doesn't allow us to do everything a body would care to do.  But is it truly a sacrifice?  Haven't we chosen to grow these little bundles of offspring and really, think about it, how much joy comes from these gifts that God has blessed us with, at our request, no less.  So, no sacrifices here that I can see, only more blessings from the one who sacrificed it all... with the greatest gift of all (:
