I Will Follow

“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

The Light

“The Light”

The walls are rough, time has done what it does

But the Light is sure and steady

The window calls out through the hardness

Come to the Light

The Light warms and comforts and illuminates

Time cannot touch it.

When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world.  Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”  ~John 8:12

Brrrr….

I don’t know how it’s feeling in your part of the world, but here in Virginia, it was 41 degrees F this morning.  I’m one of those people who don’t like to put on the heat before November….”just put on another sweater” kind of girl.  Mostly because I get a thrill out of getting a very low electric bill that month.  🙂  But this fireplace is looking really good right about now.  (Picture taken last week at Harvest festival at Graves’ Mountain.)  May God bless you today with warmth in your heart, and a constant fire of His Spirit.  Blessings, Lisa

Held

Nothing was better as a child than to be held.  Nightmares, calling out in the darkness, Mom would be there, I was safe, I was held.  Travelling to a new place, Mom or Dad would take my hand, lead me through the uncertainty, the newness, until we were in a safe location and they could let go.

“Yet I am always with You; You hold me by my right hand.” ~Psalm 73:23

God is always there, in the darkness (which is not dark to Him), in the uncertainties (of which He knows the outcome), in the newness.  He made you, He loves you, Jesus will never leave you.  You are held.  Blessings, Lisa

He Is

This is a rough version of one of my new songs, made at home one evening on a small mp3 recorder. Life has been getting in the way of studio time, but God willing, I’ll get in there sometime soon! 🙂 But it’s God’s thing, not mine. Blessings on your day, and please know that God Is, He’s right there with you. Lisa
