A Reason To Sing

“If you’ve got nothing to dance about, find a reason to sing.”   ~Melody Carstairs

“Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it.” ~Helen Keller

“Do not stop thinking of life as an adventure. You have no security unless you can live bravely, excitingly, imaginatively; unless you can choose a challenge instead of competence.” ~Eleanor Roosevelt

Good Morning

“Do you wish me a good morning,
or mean that it is a good morning whether I want it or not;
or that you feel good this morning;
or that it is a morning to be good on?”
~Gandalf, The Hobbit, J.R.R. Tolkien
You and I can ponder on this for a while, or maybe not, or maybe just for a brief moment.  Whatever path your feet are upon today, may God smooth your way.  Slainte, Lisa

Finding Diamonds

We will always find what we’re looking for….if we’re looking for the good, we can see it.  If we’re determined to see the worst, we will definitely find it.

“Because there’s so much good in the worst of us….

So much bad in the best of us

It never makes sense for any of us

To criticize the rest of us

We’ll just find what we’re looking for, find what we’re looking for.”

~Amy Grant, “Find What You’re Looking For”, How Mercy Looks From Here

I’m praying the Lord helps me to look for diamonds and beauty and joy today in others.  Be blessed today, Lisa

Finding Pasture

“I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved.  He will come in and go out, and find pasture.”    ~Jesus, John 10:9

Safety, security, forgiveness, goodness, mercy, love, light, green and white and blue and gold and beauty as far as the eye can see….that’s Jesus.  🙂  Slainte, Lisa
