THE BASKET

   I saw a pretty, pale blue wicker basket on a young lady’s arm. She was wearing a lovely wide brimmed hat with ribbon blowing in the breeze along with her long, curly, blonde hair and her dress long and glowing was tied with a pink ribbon at the waist.

   The path is strewn with beautiful fragrant flowers, food, items needed and desired to be placed in the basket.

   Upon seeing this bountiful basket, I had to look deep within my heart and ask myself, if that beautiful basket were mine, would I treasure those items and see them as gifts from GOD or would I take them all for granted, disregard their beauty and not acknowledge them as HIS gift to me?
