This is almost a difficult question for us to answer because really there are very few things we absolutely need to survive in this life. As Americans, we are blessed (or cursed depending on how you look at things) by so many material things. When we think of others who live with a fraction amount of the “things” we have, it makes us grateful for the things with which God has blessed us. Here are the top five things we couldn’t live without:
Mark—1) Jesus. 2) My wife. 3) The Bible. 4) My Family. 5) Theology books. J
Betsy—(1) Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior; (2) His Word to light my path in life; (3) the love and encouragement of family and friends; (4) books to edify, instruct, and inspire me, and (5) quiet times alone or with my better half!:-)
Bianca—1) Jesus Christ my Savior. 2) My family. 3) The Holy Word of God. 4) Encouraging fellowship with other believers. 5) Cats. J
Ben—1) The saving grace of the gospel of Jesus. 2) The Holy, infallible word of God, the Bible. 3) The fellowship of believers (the Christian church.) 4) My family. 5) Our pets. J
Rubia—1) God. 2.) The Bible. 3) My parents and siblings. 4) Pets. 5) Books.
Roma—1) God. 2) The Bible. 3) My camera J (I love snapping photos and taking videos.) 4) My family and pets. 5) Having fellowship with other believers.
Josiah—1) God. 2) The Bible. 3) Church. 4) Family. 5) Pets.
Five things I would REALLY miss: 1) my camera 2) my computer 3) internet... thinking of the first three was easy...I'll have to ponder the remaining two.
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking and now I came up with too many things. I would try to squeeze lip balm, hand lotion and tissues on my list.
ReplyDeleteI would miss all of the things you mentioned as well, Amy! We felt the pain of losing the internet this past weekend, and it wasn't very fun. A person realizes how dependent they are on something when it's no longer available! :-)
