Good Morning!
Something to think about today and in this new week.
What are the two most priceless gifts you can give to someone you love? Think here about family, friends, animals, etc. Ponder on the bigger question…..Do you Love God?
WHO DO YOU LOVE?
The two most priceless gifts you can give to a loved ones is that you give to them all the focus of your living for their time with you. . Not a dog just running beside a car…but a loved dog who knows when he is out walking the person is focussed on him not on something else even I-pads, radios, taking photographs or ‘other’ distractions.
The GIFTS ARE:
TIME and YOURSELF.
When you truly give of yourself – ie to children, animals, family, prayer life etc etc. The time is not shared time it is total TIME. ……When we give of ourselves it is often at the expense of ‘what we would prefer to be doing’. I do think it is vital in our world of hassle that we manage our time with discipline. Know WHOM we love and determine that their time will be both TIME spent in their company, and we will be totally surrendered to that time with them.
Time and the gift of YOURSELF.
Travel well this week and be a blessing to someone else!

About Faye
I m a wife, mother and grandmother. I have always enjoyed writing even from an early age. My book Beyond the Ashes has been written as a labour of love. All the characters are real to me and their story needed to be told. As a Christian my desire is to write General Fiction stories about real people but Hope and a desire for 'better' will always be part of the journey. I have had several short stories published over the years and moderate success in writing competitions.
I realized as I was thinking today (30/01/15) that perhaps I should add here that I have had life experiences of many valley times but also many mountain top experiences. I can understand and be beside anyone who finds their life in tatters because I have 'been' there. Of course as I have got older as well there have been the added sorrows of losing not only older family members but also one by one finding the dearest of friends and the ones of greatest support and care also dying. On the site of rich mountains has been my certainty of the value of marriage and how grateful I am that after loss and sadness I made a happy and long-lasting marriage commitment. The one who was my best friend back then is still my best friend 45 years later. Beyond the Ashes touches upon the POWER of LOVE when folk can forget about their own personal 'feelings' and reach out in LOVE to a desperate and broken person.
“Total time”…I really liked that Faye. It reminds me of the difference between talking to someone while your eyes are focused directly upon them, as opposed to ‘looking around’ while in conversation. Our full attention is on the essence of the person. Thank you for this wonderful reflection on (its) importance in the quality of our relationships. Hugs!!
