Framed Pictures, God's Grace and What is Important.......

Artwork, Artwork Everywhere
I am alone in the house now.  Cindy has gone for her daily workout.  Yesterday afternoon I busied myself by unpacking the many types of framed artwork that we love, and now I am realizing in the silence that we have more artwork than wall space in this new home--- A LOT more.
More....
This situation presents a challenge.  Since we have only so much  wall space, and since we have only so much storage space, we must decide which pictures and art to keep and which to give away. 
A Lot More
You know, it is painful to make such decisions.  We love our framed art.  Most of it is inexpensive, but it is the sentimental attachment that is troublesome.
Etcetera


I HAVE To Find A Space For This!
And yet, after pondering this subject for days, I realize what God wants me to realize---that these material things are completely unimportant.

Oh My!.......Even More in Cindy's Art Studio Closet!
What is important is storing up our treasures in Heaven, not on earth.  What is important is focusing on Him.  With all the misery that exists on this earth, my being concerned about a few pieces of material things is an insult to God.  I thank you, Lord, for all you have given me---our home, our health, our lives, our friends---all possible because of Your grace.  I don't really deserve any of it.
