so the theme of my thursday was kinda about sharing. I had a handful of flowers that had been shared with me ~and I tried to pass on the compliment and share with others: a couple friends and even a stranger.
so I asked my parochial schooled husband about a bible verse that might have the thought of sharing in it...he came up with 'tis better to give than to receive'. and ya know...I laughed because I didn't believe him! I'm sure I've seen that message on dozens of little trinkets on shelves gathering dust. BUT NO. it's really a bible verse. Paul writes it in Acts.
In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'
Acts 20:35
the discussion that followed will have to be written about at another time :) this week of daily thoughts has already bestowed upon me more religious conversations than I've been a part of in the past year!
