Prayer Verse
by
Mrs. Verna Mae Thomas 1891-1978.
I carry a cross in my pocket
A simple reminder to me
Of the fact that I am a Christian
No matter where I may be.
The little cross is not magic
Nor is it a good luck charm
It’s not meant to protect me
From every physical harm.
It’s not for identification
For all the world to see
It’s simply an understanding
Between my savior and me.
When I put my hand in my pocket
To bring out a coin or a key
The cross is there to remind me
Of the price He paid for me.
It reminds me too to be thankful
For my blessings day by day
And to strive to serve Him better
In all that I do and say.
It’s also a daily reminder
Of the peace and comfort I share
With all who know my Master
And give themselves to His care.
So I carry a cross in my pocket
Reminding no one but me
That Jesus Christ is Lord of my life
If only I’ll let Him be.

In the 1980’s and 90’s I crafted a number of
plastic canvas Christmas Tree hangings.
It was fun to create them.
In those days I did not own a digital camera.
I will take pictures of them and post them one day.
Just in time for Valentine a sweet plastic canvas
chocolate Hershey Kiss idea.
