Count on Brother Martin to tell us.<br /><br />"I will therefore give myself as a Christ to my neighbor, just as Christ offered himself to me; I will do nothing in this life except what I see is necessary, profitable, and salutary to my neighbor, since through faith I have an abundance of all good things in Christ.<br /><br />"Behold, from faith thus flow forth love and joy in the Lord, and from love a joyful, willing, and free mind that serves one's neighbor willingly...."Tom in Ontariohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12154434042794825551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10838182.post-32232063554934689442009-12-11T11:47:48.180-08:002009-12-11T11:47:48.180-08:00a lovely reflection, thank you!a lovely reflection, thank you!Crimson Ramblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13020190454645032359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10838182.post-42624974736196393242009-12-09T07:32:05.860-08:002009-12-09T07:32:05.860-08:00Nice analogy.

She automatically "liked" them if they were gifts...yeah right, so why were so many in the cupboard, unused. I'm also a hoarder, but I learned from her example to get rid of stuff. We would come home from a visit to her house and fill the car with things for the church rummage sale or the thrift shop in town. But my hubby wishes I would get rid of half of my stuff. I say, well at least I know what I have. You don't even remember the stuff you put into the attic of the garage.LoieJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01977264499770654307noreply@blogger.com
