What Love Means

Posted on April 30, 2013 by lyonsroarforgod

My daughter Amy, age 6, is my guest blogger today, and she would like to share her thoughts on what love means.

My doll Laura wants to tell you about love. Love means showing care to people. Love means being a nice person. Love means telling the truth. Love means helping people when they feel bad. The way my doll can show love is by always being near me. And the way I can show love is by always being very, very nice to people. I hope you like this blog, and I’m going to say goodbye now. So remember, love is the best way to encourage people. Love, Amy and my doll Laura

A Color of Joy

“Pink is a beautiful color, because it is one of the colors that the sun makes at twilight and in the dawns.” -C. Joybell C.

Our cherry tree is really showing off this spring, and we’re all glad of it! 🙂 When you walk underneath her boughs, it feels like, for just a moment, that you have entered some enchanted fairyland where anything is possible. And I like that, so I walk beneath these pink blossoms as often as I can. Enjoy the beauty today, whether it’s a drop of rain slowly falling on the windowpane, a brand new spring green clover, or a pink cherry tree. Slainte, Lisa

“This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.” – Psalm 118:24

Carefully Controlled Chaos

Posted on April 22, 2013 by lyonsroarforgod

Multitasking is sometimes just carefully controlled chaos. This morning, I stepped back from myself for a second to see how someone else would see me, and it made me laugh. Moving fast, putting on some sort of clothing that matched, walking the dog (twice before 7:30 AM !!), making three breakfasts, packing lunchboxes, doing my morning exercises, driving children to school…..all before 8 AM. I have read articles about how women are supposed to multitask well. All I know is that “when it all comes down, it’s an awful lot to do.” (from Hats, Amy Grant, Heart in Motion)

But now that things have slowed, and I’m sitting here chilled at my computer, there is a happy sense of getting it all done. That God gave me enough “umph” this morning to go. Praying for all of you this Monday that you are getting what you need to done. And that you can relax for a moment afterwards. 🙂 Slainte, Lisa

You’re With Me

“You’re With Me”

c 2012 Lisa Lyons

I don’t know what this road is; I don’t know where it leads…

I only know I’m safe when You’re with me.

I get so turned around; so many detours call me…

But I only know the way ’cause You’re with me.

And when I feel far from You, I know You’re still there beside me

Holding my hand, leading me on and on…

My feelings change; my moods rearrange like the trees out in the wind

But I don’t fly alone ’cause You’re with me

I need to see that You’re living in me…You’re my only Constant

Remove this discontent…Breathe in me…

And when I feel far from You, I know You’re still there beside me

Holding my hand, leading me on and on…

He never leaves you or forsakes you. He promised. Blessings on your weekend, Lisa
