Treasures From Above

ometimes it seems that life's greatest treasures just fall from the sky. We work and work and work and just can't seem to get anywhere. Then, when we are on the verge of utter discouragement, God sends a little blessing to let us know he still watches and cares for us.

Karen and I were driving home from my Mike and Sharon's house last evening and just as we were pulling in the driveway this little fellow jumped out of a tree and landed softly on the hood of our car. I slowly pulled into the garage, went inside and got a camera. I placed my friend in a tree at the edge of the driveway. He began to put on a show while I snapped a few photos. It didn't last long but once again I was reminded that there is amazing beauty all around us, and though I may not be rich by worldly standards, I'm comforted to know that the best things in life are truly free.
