Thursday’s Musings: Colored Pencils Make Me Happy


Adapted and used 3/20/20
Proverbs 15:16  Better to have little, with fear for the Lord, than to have great treasure and inner turmoil.

I love colored pencils.  When I was an accountant I used them to match totals or groups of related numbers.  Often, now when I begin to study scripture I’ll print it out and use the different colors to underline key thoughts and repetitive words or phrases.  I do the same as I study non-fiction books.  Colors make me happy.  I like choosing which color to use each time.  I am glad I can get such enjoyment from a box of Crayola Twistables that only costs a few dollars!  Things like that and having joy in the Lord show that a simple life can be infinitely satisfying.  Let’s remember that the important things are usually not the most costly ones.

Thank you Lord for giving us joy in the simple things of life.  Help us to find that joy today.  In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.

Blessings,

Paige
