In the mist, there’s an island…
An island where there are flowers and rocks and life…
Within that life, there is love…
And in that love, there is Jesus.
Look through the mist of your life; sometimes things look very foggy and dim, but ahead there is love and life and Jesus. Slainte, Lisa
“Originality is not doing something no one else has ever done, but doing what has been done countless times with new life, new breath. – Marie Chaplan
Creativity, originality is placed carefully into all of us by God. Because He is like that, and we are made in His image. Whether it be music, writing, drama, art, decorating, gardening, caregiving, athletics (the list could go on indefinitely), we all have that originality within us. Find that thing in you, even if it is very small right now, and breath new life and new breath into it. Nurture it and let it come alive. What a blessing you will be to the sad, worn-out world that needs a spark of hope and life.
Shine! Slainte, Lisa
“You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden…Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.” – Jesus (Matthew 5:14,16)
“Far away, there in the sunshine, are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they lead.”
-Louisa May Alcott
Keep dreaming, and praying, and reaching. Slainte, Lisa
“Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart.” (Psalm 37:4)
“The Traveler”
c2012 Lisa Lyons
Feet are on the road trying to find a place to breathe,
I know I’m not alone, but it can be so lonely trying to get to the heart of what it means to
travel down this road before me.
Never been this way, but the Light before me keeps on shining…
Love is leading me along; Light is in the evening song.
I will find a place to rest and think and sit a while by the waters still,
By the greenest meadow I have ever seen in all my life
The Peace that fills my soul lets me breathe and breathe again
Like I’ve never felt the air before.
When I’ve reached the end of the road and all the wonderful adventures that I’ve known
And I finally see the One who loves me with a perfect love
Who died so I could live forever with Him in Paradise
Neverending journey, safe in His arms….
Love is leading me along; Light is in the evening song.
Slainte, Lisa
