Day 17 - 2015 - OFFER


Today's word is:  OFFER
All I have to offer is...

 Myself!

 I am the person that God has made; I do my best to be the person He wants me to be.  I have been through many things in my life; and maybe some of my experiences will help me relate to others.

Whatever God has planned for my life, I am in the place where He has led me; my am here to fulfill whatever task He sets before me.

And, if I don't get it right the first time...

Well, I can start over again "tomorrow" and make sure I do a better job with what God gives me.

 I love this quote by Elisabeth Elliot:



I pray that in this "job" that God has given to me, I am faithful to let others see only Him in all that I do.

      Yes, I loved that quote as well...some days I spent - ALOT of time - browsing the quotes and images...I have the ideas in my head; but they don't always come out easily.

      Appreciate your reading; glad I ended up in your 5-4-5 line up! I've been trying to catch at least the 5 above, sometimes below; but a lot of blogs are in my e-mail saved folders for me to catch up reading!!

    I love this - "Well, I can start over again "tomorrow" and make sure I do a better job with what God gives me" -

    That is so true! I always try and remind myself of this and my mom would add on the end of that "God willing" .... Thank u barb
