“If God gives you the strength, see it through to the end.  Mind ye, ‘twould come harder on you to travel the fifteen miles back to your starting point than to walk the thousand-odd miles yet before you.”  Last of the Donkey Pilgrims, Kevin O’Hara, c2004

Yes, I’m reading it again.  (fourth time through)  And yes, I’m loving it again.  Who can say what it is about a certain book that makes you love it?  All I know is that I’m happy, and smiling, and chuckling just like the first time I read it.  And I’m glad of it.  Thank you, Kevin O’Hara.

So you might be hearing nuggets of it this week as I rediscover favorite lines along the way.  Yay for donkeys!  🙂  Slainte, Lisa

Low Tide

When the tide is low, things are revealed which are usually unseen.

When things go wrong in life, the same is revealed.  The hidden thoughts, the strengths, the underlying structure of a person.

And God is what holds the sea and me together, during high and low tides.  The water comes, the water goes, but Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever.  (Hebrews 13:8)

Blessings, Lisa

“What kind of man is this?  Even the winds and the waves obey him!”  (Matthew 8:27)

…lies Dunseverick Castle.  One of the high roads from Tara ended on this beautiful cliff in County Antrim.  Although the castle was destroyed in 1641, it’s location and the imagination of what was is a feast for the eyes and mind.

Here’s to the day….to seeing, to hearing, to thinking, to feeling…all the amazing things that God has placed all around to experience.  Cliffs, water, skies, rocks, grasses, birds, dogs, laughter, tears, wind, rain, warmth….
