I read this in my quiet time this morning. What stuck out to me was that the owner of the threshing floor just wanted to give it to King David and not accept his payment. However,
"...The king replied to Araunah, 'No, I insist on paying you for it. I will not sacrifice to the LORD my God burnt offerings that cost me nothing.'"
Wow, next time I have a crazy day before Bible study I will remember that my offerings should cost me something.

Besides a baby, what pregnant women get in return for surrendering their waistlines is nine months of thick, glorious hair. It’s a beautiful thing. However, when Baby is just a few months old (about the time Mommy is seeing hints of her returning waistline) it all falls out. Soon her face is framed by the re-growth—lovely inch-long hairs called baby bangs. This blog is named for that charming little phenomenon.

Speaking of quiet time....I had a dream about you last night and I said a prayer for you and yours this morning! Have a wonderful day!
thanks....needed that today :)
Amen!
Amen! I forget that all the time!
I love that passage. The Lord seems to smack me with it everytime I start whining about how hard (or incovenient) something is. He is so worthy of my going out of my way for Him. If serving Him doesn't cost me something is it really an offering?
Thanks for the reminder, Amanda!
yes...very good word.

I nominated you for a blog award. Visit my blog to find out which one! :)
Yes...ours have been costly, but very sweet lately.
Can I say, thank you for sharing your skills? I think the video is stinkin' hilarious! You certainly have some David genes (the crazy part, the praising part and the girl after God's heart part).
Love ya!
Holly
What a fabulous reminder for me!
Thanks Amanda!
