The Gift.

what should I do with it?? hmm... there are a couple of options~

1. Open it and laugh and scream in delight.
2. Open it and cry in disappointment.
3. Don't open it, and leave it where I can see it... constantly haunting my thoughts.
4. Don't open it, and put it away in the depths of unorganization (under the bed)... constantly haunting my thoughts.
5. Don't open it, put it away, and forget about it.
6. Shake it up a little bit, and guess what's inside.
7. Wait for someone else to open it up for me, and ruin the surprise.
8. Let some kids open it... you know they love wrapping paper.

That's what I won't do.

Here's what I will do~ I will open it little pieces at a time... not fully ready to open it all the way... I mean, I was only given it today for crying out loud. I will carefully rip off the ribbon, then cautiously peel back the taped edges... until the gift is revealed.

I just want to prepare my heart to take it... with everything I am.

At least the sun is out today. God is good, all the time :)
