Receiving Gifts

Part of learning humility is learning to accept gifts from people.  A friend of mine recently gave me a very generous gift.

She has a Nook and didn't really need the Kindle.  After several weeks, she said God laid it on her heart to give it to me since I'd have a super long plane ride to China and she knows I love to read as much as I do.  I was amazed.  It will come in handy for both Jenna and I on the plane.  I can't wait to use it!

Also, another friend from work brought a whole trunk load of stuff for Kylie.  Just look...

I am so excited for Kylie to get here and meet all the friends who have contributed to her new home or her trip home.

I love my friends.
