Our neighbor texted me late in the afternoon asking me if I was noticing the sunset. First of all, it needs to be said that this is a very nice quality to have in a neighbor – one who not only notices sunsets, but who also makes sure I’m aware that something special is going on out there.
I took some photos and then decided that it might be fun to make an inspirational poster out one of them. I chose a phrase that I recently read in the book Pilgrim’s Progress that I found particularly…particular. You’ll see what I mean.
Isn’t that special? The world needs more decorative pillows embroidered with this kind of timeless sentiment.
My daughter and I are reading through Pilgrim’s Progress together and have enjoyed running across these strange little gems occasionally. Apparently bowels were considered the seat of pity, tenderness and courage. So in today’s parlance, it would read something like this:
It becomes us as Christians to be characterized by pity, tenderness and courage.
But that’s too long for an inspirational poster. I’ll just leave it the way it is.
Let me know if you start seeing this on coffee cups, posters and t-shirts because I started it and I want some form of credit for it. Ha ha!
Deletion of this post becometh the blogger.
P.S. I decided to use a different sunset photo for my poster, so it doesn’t look like the same sunset for a reason. It wasn’t.
