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 Sandy Path

Soft, sandy paths feel good on bare feet, but they are hard to walk on.  The sand gives way underfoot, causing all the other muscles to work harder to gain momentum.  (good workout though!)  Hard packed sand, however, is great to walk on.  Rocky paths are difficult, because you need to watch your step carefully so there are no turned ankles on the way.

No matter which type of path you’re walking today, the end of the path is worth it.  There are oceans to be seen, seagulls flying overhead, and mountain vistas abounding.  Walk the path, and hold tightly to the hand of God, who will give you the strength you need for the path you’re traveling.  Slainte, Lisa

The Cloud Came Over the Mountain

Coming home one evening not too long ago, I saw our mountain enveloped in cloud and mist, and of course, I ran inside to get my camera pronto.  Now if there was a way to get rid of those electrical lines.  But without electricity, there would be no computer, no WordPress, and hence, no post.  😉  Have a wonderful day!  Slainte, Lisa
