A Church with Sand on the Floor

I don’t know about you, but this is about perfect.  A beautiful white wooden church with sand on the floor, blue ocean right outside its windows, sea breezes blowing through…the best of God’s air conditioning.  Let’s go…OK?  🙂  Slainte, Lisa

Do You Remember?

Do you remember this feeling?

Or how about this one?

Find one reason today to feel like that again.

Some ideas to get you started if you’re feeling sleepy this morning:

…When you’re outside, and the mood hits you, twirl in the grass, or take your shoes off, or sing, or all of the above.

…When you take a walk, pretend you’re trekking to China with pirates chasing you, and who knows? there might be treasure along the way.  Keep an eye out!

…Get in the water and make a giant water suction bubble with your hands under the water.  Do it again.

…Pick up a pretty rock you see, and then look for another one.  Start a new rock collection just for the day.

…Pick a flower and really look at it and breathe deeply.  Spring is here!

Blessings to you, Lisa

The Foggy Dew

Beautiful morning….thin transparent clouds touching the ground, creating a hazy misty wonderland of hiddenness.  The sun somewhere behind those low clouds trying to push through, hitting the dew on the grass and making it glitter like wet diamonds under my feet.  As I walked my daughter to the bus stop, I told her we were walking through a cloud, and she kept waving her hand through the air, saying, “I don’t feel it.”  “But look around,” I replied.  “The fog, the low clouds, are all around us.  We see it, but we don’t feel it.”

Thank you God, for the reminder that You are everywhere I see, even when I can’t feel it.  Your clouds came down and kissed the earth this morning and kissed us too, and that’s awesome.  🙂

Here’s a wonderful peaceful rendition of the trad tune, “The Foggy Dew,” for you to chill out to this morning.

Jet Streams and the Irish Classic Mineral Water Company

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I hereby present picture exhibit A… lovely jet streams.

And picture exhibit B…an empty bottle of Irish Classic Mineral Water Company’s sparkling pure Irish water with my cup containing said water beside it.

What possible link could there possibly be between the two you ask?  Has this blogger finally lost all sense of reason?

A jet stream remains in the sky, seen and witnessed as plausible proof that a jet had been there.  Yet this must be believed by faith sometimes, as the jet is long gone.

I tell you that the green cup contains the sparkling Irish water that was once in the bottle, yet you have to believe me and take it by faith that that is really what is in there.

Beautiful things all around us(blue skies, amazing creatures, storms, oceans, mountains, brand new babies, bird songs, music, true love, art, sunsets, etc)…………………………………………………………………………….Jesus.

Have a joyful time connecting the dots.  Slainte, Lisa
