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
“Pain nourishes courage. You can’t be brave if you’ve only had wonderful things happen to you.” ~Mary Tyler Moore
This song by Enation is something different from what you’d usually see on my blog. But it’s a heart cry…raw, hopeful and alive. Enjoy, Lisa
“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
“You want to go where?!?”
“Up this mountain….come on, it’ll be grand.”
One walks, the other follows, keeping her eyes fixed on the sheep in front. How I wish I could follow Jesus with the same kind of fixedness. Keep my eyes on Him, follow, go, wherever He decides to lead. Yet despite myself, He keeps me following…day by day, step by step, mountain by mountain. And one day I’ll reach the top, with him, and it will be so worth it. I won’t feel the pain of twisted joints from the journey, only joy that I made it with Him. Be encouraged today, Lisa
“Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfector of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” ~Hebrews 12:2
“Let your eyes look straight ahead, fix your gaze directly before you. Make level paths for your feet and take only ways that are firm. Do not swerve to the right or the left; keep your foot from evil.” ~Proverbs 4:25-27
