Life is Precious
Many things this week, not the least of which is the seriousness of my mother-in-law's illness, have reminded me of the precious gift of life. I realize how easily we take our loved ones for granted, not seeing the great treasure that God has placed before us. Gold and silver in our midst, and we fail to see it shine! This week I have hugged my husband and children a little tighter and reminded them and myself how much I love them. They need to hear it even when they know it. They are my greatest treasure, and a part of me would die without them. Even our baby who died at 6 weeks gestation is a part of the treasure that Don and I have, and we are grateful to God for this baby who was never born. Silent Night, Holy Night, God bless us all and teach us to see the treasure that surrounds us.
