Vision speaks in 39 cent increments

Stamp Collecting dispels boredom, enlarges our vision, broadens our knowledge, makes us better citizens and in innumerable ways, enriches our lives.
(President Roosevelt)

That Roosevelt was one smart fella! Yesterday someone gave us money for stamps! Can you believe that!? I told you so!

A couple of books of stamps have never felt so NEAT in my hands, to use a perfectly sixth grade term. You know that feeling in sixth grade when you became fixated on some subject matter or sport and every next thing you learned about it was just the COOLEST? And every next thing that you could buy to add to your collection about that was the BEST? And you just wanted to show your stuff off to EVERYONE because they just HAD to learn about it too?! (Well, for me anyway). These stamps are NEAT, THE COOLEST, THE BEST and HEY LOOK AT OUR STAMPS!!!

14 When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, 15 the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth. 16 I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. 17 Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. 18 And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. 19 May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.

20 Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. 21 Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.
