Deep Calls to Deep

 

DSCN2463“Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls; all your waves and breakers have swept over me.”  ~ Psalm 42:7

Certain verses and quotes speak to me profoundly, even though I don’t quite grasp the entirety of what it is trying to say.  At the risk of being redundant, they are too deep.  Like God.  I think I understand Him, but I really only just see the surface, the beginnings of wonderfulness.  There is so much more than what we can see and understand, and that is exciting.  The future is thrilling in its uncertain discoveries.  Comment below and share your thoughts on this verse, how it makes you feel, what thoughts come to your mind.  Blessings, Lisa

P.S.  Most of you said your eye was drawn to the water/rocks/spash in yesterday’s picture.  Thanks for commenting!

Do You…?

Given the choice to explore one of two castles for the day, do you pick

the restored and maintained Cahir Castle100_1631

or the Ballycarberry Castle ruin?100_1568

Both great castles in their own uniqueness.  Answer in the comments below and tell me about your imaginary travel day.  Have fun climbing the stony, windy staircases in your mind.  🙂  Slainte, Lisa

P.S.  Yesterday’s cliff cave poll was tied….half of you would ask many questions, and half would stay in the boat.  Only one brave person would jump out and go, no questions asked.  🙂  In case you were wondering, me…water….boat…no question where I’m staying!

Would You…?

A bit of hypothetical fun for your Monday morning….presented for your consideration is a small cave at the base of a St. Lucia cliff.  A small boat takes you to this opening, and gives you the opportunity to explore the unknown cave and will wait for your (possible) return.   Take the poll below, and I’ll let you know what I would do later.  (although you can probably guess  🙂  )  Slainte, Lisa

Down the Path

DSCN1161

DSCN1227Here are two pathway pictures taken in the Elizabethan Gardens, Manteo, NC.  Do you prefer the winding path where you can’t see the end, or the straight path, where the end is clearly visible?  I have to say that I prefer the winding one, although in life, I always feel that I want to know what’s going to happen.  But maybe I really don’t…life is so much the better for the surprises, the “wow, I didn’t expect that”, the bends and turns and beauty discovered after time.  And so this is what my brain is thinking about on a Monday morning….I think another cup of coffee is in order.  😉  Slainte, Lisa

“Show me your ways, O Lord, teach me your paths; guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long.”  ~Psalm 25:4
