Today is Fun Monday and thanks to Karmyn at Dreaming What ifs for giving todays topic. We are to write about our most treasured objects, and so here are mine.
I do not have a picture of my treasured objects but let me paint the picture for you. Its very old and is covered in a black leather binder. The binder is tattered and pieces are falling off, or have already fallen off.. the pages in side are old and yellowed giving that musty smell you find in most old books. Pages have been folded and torn and you can see it has been well used. Things are underlined and thoughts written on the sides on different pages. It had been new once, during the Great depression and given to a young girl that grew to Love this book behind anything. This book was passed down to her youngest daughter and loved then handed to me... the oldest daughter. This book is very old and holds many stories with it. Stories of war, and stories of depression and triump, stories of love and hope and sadness and death, yet this book holds all the memories of the people reading the book and taking it with them throughout life. This book was my grandmothers bible. To me this is the most precious gift one could get.. it holds her salvation testimony, of when she accepted Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior and repented from her sin turning instead to God and His ways. The stories that lay within this book is precious and dear and true, as well as the stories that suround the book that had carried it through life.
My second most precious item that I have is round and gold and lays on my left hand. It was given out of love and out of a struggling mans income and yet it is very precious to me. Its my wedding ring and I wish I could find my camera to take a picture of both these items. I have found quite a few other things as precious items but these are the two that I find the most precious of all. One has built my foundation for life (the bible) and the other has been the foundation to life I now have ( marriage) and both that blend well together and is something I wish all girls attain.. salvation and a life grounded on the truths held in the bible and then founded on a vow within the marriage, a vow that is unbreakable, unchangable, and unconditional. A vow to stay faithful and to stay through all the tough times and rough times as well as the joyfull and happy times.
