From our home to yours, I wish you a wonderful and peaceful Christmas, full of laughter, love, friends, and family. May the Light of Christ shine brightly in your heart, keeping you warm, showing the way, and letting you know how very much you are loved. Slainte, Lisa
“The sea hath no king but God alone.” ~Dante Gabriel Rossetti
“How inappropriate to call this planet Earth when it is clearly Ocean.” ~Arthur C. Clarke
“You rule the raging of the sea; when its waves rise, you still them.” ~Psalm 89:9, ESV
Sometimes, when I feel all churned up inside from too much chaos, it helps me to meditate on something much more powerful and strong. Thinking of the force of the ocean’s waves, its pull back into the depths of the sea, reminds me that God is so, so much stronger than this temporary life. Life is good, life is a gift, and life returns to Jesus. He made all things, He controls all things, He is taking care of me. Nothing else comes close to this. I can rest, I can trust. Blessings, Lisa
“May God grant you always…
A sunbeam to warm you,
A moonbeam to charm you,
A sheltering angel, so nothing can harm you.” ~Irish Blessing
“For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.” ~Psalm 91:11
“Are not the angels all ministering spirits, servants sent out in the service [of God for the assistance] of those who are to inherit salvation?” ~Hebrews 1:14
Quiet, listen….the things of God are all around us. We just have to be still, listen, seek; we will find. Blessings, Lisa
“It was not long afterwards that He rose into the sky and disappeared into a cloud, leaving them staring after Him. As they were straining their eyes for another glimpse, suddenly two white-robed men were standing there among them, and said, ‘Men of Galilee, why are you standing here staring at the sky? Jesus has gone away to heaven, and some day, just as He went, He will return!'” ~ Acts 1:10-11
“At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.” ~Luke 21:27
“Look, He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see Him, even those who pierced Him; and all the peoples of the earth will mourn because of Him.” ~Revelation 1:7
Be ready; be prayerful; be watching. Blessings, Lisa
“Never lose sight of the desires God has placed within you.” ~Anonymous
“I don’t want to see you hesitate, when you’ve been called to explore
And I don’t want to see you weary, when you’ve been made to soar…
In case you didn’t know, you have permission to dream.” ~Enation, Permission to Dream
“I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which
God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 3:14 (NIV)
It’s easy to get down, be uninspired, to be bogged down in the details. But God has created you in His image…a creative, inspired, alive, and dreaming person who is one of a kind. Rejoice! Lisa
