Gather Up

This afternoon as I was striving to be thrifty and was looking for a binder to reuse, I came across this short essay written by Rachel.  It had been an assignment in her English class while a freshman at ACU.  I have no idea what the writing prompt was, but the result spoke to this me today as I'm in a  "growing family" mode of thinking.  I shall share:

This routine that we kept over the years can be attributed largely to Bob's love for God and Scripture and his amazing self-discipline. As I watch our children teaching their own children in their own special, unique manner, I pray that:

God, out of his glorious riches will strenthen them with power through the Spirit in their inner selves, so that Christ will dwell in their hearts through faith. And they, being rooted and established in love, will have the power to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ.  Eph. 3:16-17  Amen

I am thankful.

-----Pleas pardon my technological inadequacies.  
These are the ways I knew to copy/reprint Rachel's essay:  
1) type it again, or 
2) scan the pages. 
I chose scanning.

This led to these issues:  
1) leave the image so small that few could read the essay, or 
2) make it larger. But the little orange and red lettering gets in the way a bit.
Again, I chose number 2.

Perhaps I someday become so technologically savvy that I will find a fix.  But perhaps not....
And that's OK.
