On Track

When you’re hiking, you can get lost pretty quickly if you don’t stay on the trail.  Things start looking the same and you can get turned around and disoriented.  In dancing or figure skating, experts say to keep your eyes fixed on one focal point, so that you won’t get dizzy during spins; it keeps you grounded.  In my life, if I take my eyes off God, I can get dizzy and lost and disoriented really quickly.  And then I always wonder what happened….how did I get so discouraged?  It usually takes me a few days to realize what I did…I lost sight of my focal point, my constant.

“Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don’t try to figure out everything on your own.  Listen for God’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; He’s the one who will keep you on track.”                                                                                                           – Proverbs 3:5-6 (The Message)

I pray that I can keep focused on His voice, and I pray the same for you today.  Blessings, Lisa

By Killarney’s Lakes and Fells

Edmund O’Rourke

By Killarney’s lakes and fells,
Emerald Isles and winding bays,
Mountain paths and woodland dells,
Mem’ry ever fondly strays;
Bounteous nature loves all lands;
Beauty wanders everywhere,
Footprints leaves on many strands,
But her home is surely there!
Angels fold their wings and rest
In that Eden of the west,
Beauty’s home, Killarney,
Ever fair Killarney.

Happy Wanderer

Me: Walking dog on dewy early morning, waiting for him to do what he needs to do so that I can go back and work on my “to do” list.

Fritz:  Happy to be outside, sniffing the clover, sniffing the grass, sniffing just about everything really, no “to do” list in his mind, just happy.

Hmmm…which one of us had the right idea?  Fritz, living the moment….you go, buddy!  🙂  Carpe diem.  Slainte, Lisa

Oklahoma

Yesterday was a rough day…sad news from Oklahoma,sad news from friends, worries about others.  It drove me to praying pretty quick.  I know that many of you are doing the same thing.  And I’m also praying that I keep praying…that I don’t forget to keep lifting these people up in the days to come.  Blessings, Lisa
