I just received the most generous and beautiful box of fan mail I've ever received from @erikvonerik. It's "fan mail", I think. I have fans, right?

 

Anyway...for no cost at all, I was sent these gorgeous vintage trick or treat bags and Halloween goodies, all the way from Tennessee. But as neat as they are, the best item in the lot was not vintage at all, rather, brand new. I believe I mentioned in a comment a while back how cool a painting that Erik did was. Never did I expect to see it in the mail. I have no idea where I'm going to put all this vintage Halloween junk, but I DO know where this gorgeous painting is going...right on my wall.

 

I can't thank you enough, Erik for the amazing gifts and the lovely message on the back of the painting (which Erik informs me was a piece of scrap wood in his grandfather's shed.) I am still confused and flattered every time someone compliments me for the art/music/videos I share and create, and this is no exception. The thought that just being myself has the ability to brighten someone's day...it's humbling. Thank you so much, Erik. Keep painting and creating your awesome art.

I did 2 really cool things this week. First, I went on a photo expidition with my old Canon PowerShot SD110. Secondly, I posted my fav shots from my little old camera along with quotes that were randomly selected from www.wisdomquotes.com. The photo title is the quote category and you've already read the quote. I loved how the quotes fit (or don't fit) with the photo!

Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

2 Corinthians 9:7 (NIV)

 

1. Soulish Generosity Is Not Logical

 

Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus lived, whom Jesus

 

had raised from the dead. Here a dinner was given in Jesus’ honor. Martha served, while

 

Lazarus was among those reclining at the table with him. Then Mary took about a pint of

 

pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume. But one of his disciples,

 

Judas Iscariot, who was later to betray him, objected, “Why wasn’t this perfume sold and

 

the money given to the poor?” It was worth a year’s wages.

John 12:3-5 (NIV)

 

2. Soulish Generosity Is Motivated By A Great Opportunity

 

Leave her alone,” Jesus replied. “It was intended that she should save this perfume for the day of my burial. You will always have the poor among you, but you will not always have me.”

John 12:7-8 (NIV)

 

3. Soulish Generosity Requires Significant Sacrifice

 

But one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was later to betray him, objected, “Why wasn’t this perfume sold and the money given to the poor? It was worth a year’s wages. ” He did not say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief; as keeper of the money bag, he used to help himself to what was put into it. “Leave her alone,” Jesus replied. “It was intended that she should save this perfume for the day of my burial. You will always have the poor among you, but you will not always have me.”

John 12:4-8 (NIV)

 

David said, “I will not give to the Lord that which costs me nothing.”

2 Samuel 24:24

 

Leave her alone,” said Jesus. “Why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful thing to me. The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them any time you want. But you will not always have me. She did what she could. She poured perfume on my body beforehand to prepare for my burial. I tell you the truth, wherever the gospel is preached throughout the world, what she has done will also be told, in memory of her.”

Mark 14:6-9 (NIV)
