Sunday Sentiments

Sunday Sentiments

The circle of love, of life…
I have this Bible open in my foyer, it’s my Pawpaw’s… I open it to different passages for the season, or for words I want to permeate through my home that day, and I often use it to photograph on…
for some reason the other day I looked at the front page & saw this…
I guess I didn’t realize or remember that it was from my Mom….
she gave it to him as a gift, she was 20 & it was the Christmas before she married my Daddy, then I was born 3 years later…
my Pawpaw who made notes all through it- dates in the margins, my Pawpaw who loved music & flowers-
a love that lives in me as does his faith that sustains me,
all my family knows I remember dates, numbers stick in my mind like glue, and I love cataloging life events…
maybe I like the organizing of it all… but I was struck by this one because it surprised me to see…
Quite the perfect backdrop for this lovely piece, simple yet charming…
elegant yet understated….
A beautiful circle of turquoise & pearls…
A reminder of a love that has no end….
“The faithful love of the Lord never ends! His mercies never cease”
Lamentations 3:22
