I have three treasured tools. They are very special and each is important to me. The first was
The second like the first belonged to someone else before it was mine. This brush was owned by my sweet friend Barbie Belle who taught me how to paint. I would joke with her that it was the magic brush. In her hand it certainly appeared to be. Now this well-used tool will serve to remind me of all the wonderful times we shared. Yes, I will be using this brush often hoping to find a bit of her magical touch!
Last, but my most treasured tool of all...God's Word. This is where I go when I need comfort, advice, a good story, romance, mystery and a wonderful ending! Here is where my truth is found. This book holds everything one needs for wisdom and discernment. It is my true "North Light"! Many tools will come and go but this one is timeless.
Thank you for letting me share these three treasures with you. Perhaps you will share some of yours with me.
Hugs
Debbie

I am so glad you included the Bible!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Sandi-the Bible is my most treasured possession too. I have cookbooks that my grandma used all the time, and one handwritten cookbook that she made for me that is very treasured. She made it for my 17th birthday.
ReplyDeleteI love the stories that come with treasured items. They give a history to each item and make them special. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing with us-hugs
ReplyDeleteDebbie, thank you for sharing these wonderful treasured items as well as the reason they are so important to you. It really shows what/who is important in your life. Have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteLove your treasured tools. Not only useful but they hold memories as well.
ReplyDeleteAwwww, lovely thoughts for today. Hang on to all of them.
ReplyDeleteI like that you treasures some things from ancestors. I also like that you listed your bible. I have a bible too - that I have all sorts of notes in that meant something to me.
ReplyDeleteThese are special and treasured things that you have, Debbie. That is so neat that your dear friend, Barbie, used to paint with that brush. How delightful that you call it the "magic brush." The Bible is a very important book, and when we read it, God's words teach us and comfort us and stay with us through generation after generation. Thank you for sharing your heart with us, Debbie, and the things that mean the most to you.
