Dreams and Snowflakes
We are having snow this morning….thick, wet, huge snowflakes that are melting as soon as they hit the warmer pavement. Which is great with me, as I am a pretty uncourageous snow driver. The snow is fading away quickly, like a good dream that disappears into thin air as you awaken.
But some things, the really good things, never fade away. The love of a special person, the faithfulness of God to us, the promises that God has made in His word that always come to pass, the hope of eternity spent in peace and joy and beauty with Jesus. These things will never pass away, never melt, never fade. I am thankful for these things this morning. Slainte, Lisa
A Rose By Any Other Name…
“What’s in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet.” ~Juliet, Romeo & Juliet II, ii, 1-2
OK…..it might be as sweet, but it wouldn’t be known as the town with the L-O-N-G-E-S-T town name. A Welsh town known as Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyll-llantysiliogogogoch. Yes, it’s a real name and a real place. And I guess that poor little Welsh schoolchildren have to learn how to spell it, hopefully in high school or college. 😉
Learning things like this makes me happy. Have a wonderful Monday, Lisa
Fretful Finnegan
“There are birds in the yard, I repeat….BIRDS!!! And you aren’t letting me go out to get them, WHY????” ~Direct quote from Finnegan, 1 year old cockapoo extreme
Hope your Friday morning is a little less fretful. 😉 Blessings for a great weekend! Lisa
The Tale of Two Trees
Once upon a time, there were two trees. One was straight and tall, no impediments in his way up towards the sky. His neighbor was different, with many twisty-turny limbs, curves, unexpected bends. The twisty tree looked longingly at his neighbor, wishing his path could be so predictable, even, steady. Yet the other tree wished for more excitement, more challenges as his bendable neighbor had. Over time, they learned from each other, they grew together, they both served their purpose….to bring beauty and joy and fresh clean air to all who passed by.
No matter which tree represents your life today, you have a great purpose. God will use you if you are open and listening to Him. Slainte, Lisa
