“I lift my eyes to the hills – where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip – He who watches over you will not slumber.” ~ Psalm 121:1-3
May your feet be steady and sure, taking every step knowing that God’s got you. Slainte, Lisa
One of my favorite things about Ireland are the sheep. They are everywhere out in the country, and usually stay together, like this herd outside the gates of Kells Priory.
But as we went inside to explore further, we found two little sheep that were doing their own relaxing for the day. They had decided to go on holiday, and we’re so glad they did.
Follow the crowd if you must today, but make sure they’re headed somewhere good. If not, break away and find your own spot. 🙂 Slainte, Lisa
“Peace is not the absence of something bad; rather it is the presence of something good.” ~Brian Bill
“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” ~Jesus, John 14:27
“The man of war throws stones, and the peacemaker builds a bridge out of those stones.” ~Warren Wiersbe
Have a peaceful weekend. Slainte, Lisa
I was asking someone the other day if they were working on any goals. A bit of laughter ensued, as we both realized that we were a little tired of goals. But I prefer to think of them as action steps. What I am going to do to get where I need to go. Like this picture….off far in the misty distance is the beautiful island that I would love to see one day. But right in front of me is the path with the beautiful black gate and lovely flowers. I may or may not reach that island, but there is a good pathway right in front of me, right now. And all I can do is what is in front of me, no worrying about yesterday, trying not to fret about all the things that may or may not happen tomorrow. Putting a smile on my face, now. Taking a couple deep breaths, and appreciate the fact that I’m alive, now. Watching my fuzzy dog puttering about, now. Inhaling my coffee, now. Being thankful for all the good things God has blessed me with, now. Love and blessings to you, Lisa.
One thing I can definitely say about the west of Ireland in May…you won’t need to worry about your hair! Wendy Eire, or windy Ireland as some of you may know her, takes care of everything for you. Rather freeing actually, as everyone around you uses the same stylist. 😉 And I hope that today is a good hair day for you all. Slainte, Lisa
