My mother found a little cross on a chain that she gave me for Christmas about three or four years ago.
It was around the time when we were having our bad clashes and for a long time I put it aside forgetting about it initially but while I was still living with the family I overheard Mum telling Nan how disappointed she was that I never wore it and then I started doing so though the bitterness of our conflict was still present. Eventually I stopped wearing it again and then I moved out into my unit where I've been for 2 and a half years.
The Lord has been at work in reconciling me to the family, especially Mum all this time and I was looking for the cross because I wanted to have it again. Mum found it stashed away in some cupboard over at the family home and I thank my God that I found it and can wear it again to remind me how much I need to depend upon Him who willingly yielded up His life on an actual wooden cross to reconcile me to my Heavenly Father and to my family as well.

That's a great story, Marty.

It's so great to have something physical like a chain or a band to remind us where we stand.

My deepest thanks to all my friends well wishes.
It's a lovely chain, but it's too small to slip over my head. You need to undo the clasp link in order to put it around and take it off your neck. For the past few days I've been wearing it all the time, whether I eat, sleep, shower or go anywhere. I love displaying it for people to notice. :smile:

I glad you love your necklace that much. But I don't think you would really want people to see you with it in the shower, though. heh!:eek:

Nobody sees me in the shower at my unit anyway. Except God of course. And I don't mind Him seeing so. :wink:
