Keepers!



As I mentioned in Rock4Today,
 I know God is our Keeper,
but we are also "keepers" of each other!
Cain seems to have realized that when he asked the Lord,

When our youngest child was born,
the first words I remember my doctor saying were,
"She's a keeper!"
I can truly say that about each of my children.
They are keepers!





I can also say this for my husband.
He is definitely a keeper!
God gave me a gift when he gave me Gary.
Although our lives are so full,
he often takes time to make sure I feel "kept".
He seems to sense when I need a bit of peace,
like taking me out on the lake in the quiet of the evening,
or for an excursion into our beautiful Ozark country.


After saying this, I am embarrassed to admit that
sometimes I tend to think of "keeping" as negative.
For example,
I often don't see how much "keeping" my husband does for me,
and instead, I focus on how much "keeping" he takes!
It's at those times I have to remind myself
of my wise Aunt Mae's words:
"That's the price you pay for having a man!"
Yes, Aunt Mae, he's a good man,
and certainly worth keeping!

Maybe Aunt Mae's words aren't Scriptural advice,
but they are certainly worth paying attention to!


Check out my Rock4Today blog which gives verses
from the Holy Bible that show
God as "My Keeper."
I am so glad that He never gets tired of being "My Keeper!"
