"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house." Matthew 5:14-15

"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it." Matthew 13:45-46

Trip Preparations

As you prepare for a trip, perhaps you have a checklist of things that need to be accomplished before leaving. Items that need to be packed, things to do before leaving, perhaps last minute shopping, etc. In the midst of these preparations as our family plans to take a quick trip to Virgina, I was reminded of the need each day to make sure my heart is prepared for the day, before it even begins. Do I have the right attitude? Have I spent time with the Lord? Each day is a "new trip" how much preparation do you put into it? I pray that each day I will begin talking with my heavenly Father and receivinh His instructions for the day. Help me to make the best "trip" preparations each day.
