Blog Entry~ Picture Perfect: Safe ~Apr 24, '08 7:05 AM
for everyone

This week our host Cherie had chosen Safe as the theme for Picture Perfect.

After I read it I quickly grab my camera and walked around to find the 'perfect' object that suits the theme. I found couple of pictures and had a hard time choosing but then settled for this one.

(Double click for better viewing)

It's one of my mother's nick-nacks she placed in a higher shelf so my son can't play with it. The writing on it is:

I will never forget you...

I have carved you upon the palms of My hands

(Isaiah 49:15-16)

I personally find this little ornament to be a gentle reminder of how God will always keep us safe no matter what happen in our lives, at least that's how I feel...SAFE under His protections.

Join the fun here: Picture Perfect.

Finally! I picture that represents God and religion! The last one I'm going to check today, and so what a great way to end. Excellent interpretation of "safe."

I like that the object you associate with safety has been given a "safe" resting place of its own.
fotofriday wrote on Apr 24
...and this is why I chose safe this week....because I was reminded when I needed it most by these words.... I am safe in His hands. Seems God will use many to remind me until I have it deeply in my heart....I can trust in Him to keep me safe. You have passed on the message so well today.

Lovely take on Safe. I second what Gary said-what could be better than Safe in the hands of the Father-and also that your mother kept this knick knack safe too. Thankyou for visiting mine. :)

Sensitive and caring words, Maureen...and how can it not be? They're taken from the Bible. A very thoughtful entry that definitely evokes the meaning of safe.

If you have a moment, I hope you'll remember to drop by mine tomorrow, since I'm the usual Friday entrant. Just stopping by again to let you know mine is up at: Romy's SAFE haven Thanks in advance for making it over.

Beautiful M... our spirit and soul is safe in the creator's hand... no matter what happens in life on earth. Love your perspective. Maybe the ornament could be mounted on a wall so her grandson can be included in seeing the message. Just a thought... thanks for visiting my monkey and leaving such an inspiring comment. http://rumbledoll.multiply.com/journal/item/11/So_lonely_I_could_cry..._42408_FF

Interesting knick knack. I've never seen anything like it, but I'm sure it has earned its precious status on the upper shelf for it represent such safety in itself.
