In the Bucket


Last week a friend was going through old newspaper clippings for our scrapbook at work, when she came across an article entitied, "What's in your Bucket?"  Dr. Mike Davis, from First Baptist Cleveland writes about how we are earthen vessels (2 Corinthians 4:7). He goes on to talk about times when we are carrying a cup of coffee and are jostled and what's inside of the cup spills out. He challenges readers to examine what is in their earthen vessel and spills out when they are jostled by life. I was so excited to find this in light of my last post, so I had to share it with you.

Now, as promised, I'm going to share a few of the things on my "bucket list" (not that you really care, but if I write them down, then I can check them off later, right?). 
  1. Ride an elephant
  2. Visit all 50 states
  3. Finish my PhD
  4. See a Grizzly Bear in Alaska (but not too close)
  5. Visit Ireland
  6. Visit the Grand Canyon
  7. Ride in a hot air balloon
  8. Safari with someone I love
  9. Visit Amicalola Hike Inn
  10. Ride in a Helicopter
Have you thought about what would be on your bucket list? If so, I'd love to hear from some of you. My list is forever growing and changing, and you may have some great ideas for me to add!
