Scripture - Read Psalm 103, Romans 12:1-2, Mark 12:13-17



Response - Ask God to show you the relationship between your gifts and the ways they might be used to fulfill your basic desire. Then consider how you have used these gifts thus far?

Carnival

The hope for fun
The smell of popcorn and cotton candy
Endless lines . . .of required tickets
The hope for joy
Bumper cars and smiles
Darts and inflatable guitars
Ducks and spiders rings
Funnel cakes
The hope for more tickets
One last ride.
Snuggling at home.

Perfect Day

Cloudless skies
Autum colors
The tapping of lady bugs on my window
Sharing a moment with an old friend
Eating lunch on the porch with my son
Candid conversation
Thoughts that plague me
Raspy coughs
Congestion
Cloudless skies
Autum colors
The tapping of lady bugs on my window
