I was listening to Beth Moore last night and she was talking about how she routinely purges her closet. If she hasn't worn something in a year she says out loud to herself, "Wear it or share it!" and then she donates the item to someone in need. She then went on to say that as the end of the year approaches and she discovers that some of her "treasured" items haven't been worn she will frantically try and wear them so that she can keep them. I had to laugh. We all do this. I know Beth was only talking about clothes but it got me to thinking about how we sometimes tend to bury our treasures at one time or another to keep from sharing them.
Today's prayer: "God, you have given me many treasures. You never intended me to hoard them. Help me to remember to wear them well and share them well. Amen."
