When I sit beside the ocean, I hear power, I hear peace, I hear God. The power of a wave, even a small wave, as it crashes on top of you is amazingly strong. The pull of the water as it retreats back into the sea takes all in its path. The sound of the waves on the shore is all encompassing, drowning out the voices surrounding, the worries, the fears. Like Jesus. He draws all of us to himself; He wants all of us to be with Him, to listen to His voice, feel peace, feel encompassing protection. Listen….can you hear Him? Blessings, Lisa

Fresh Wind of Change
Usually change terrifies me….but God is doing something new in me. Changes are coming in our family, and I’m feeling rather exhilarated, excited, anticipatory. (Plus, I’m wanting to use flowery adjectives, which is not such a good thing. haha) New schools, new job, new challenges and schedules. Not boring, not predictable, and definitely not the same-old, same-old. 🙂 The winds of change are blowing, but I’m not afraid because my good God is in the middle of it all. Blessings to you today, Lisa
Beneath the Pier
Pillow Soft
These clouds are just begging for someone to take a nice long nap on them. Kick your feet up on the end, sink your head down into the downy precipitation, and rest. The first time that I flew on an airplane as a child, I was alarmed when I saw that we were heading into one of these soft creations. Would we make it through? How would it feel? Passing through on the other side, I was relieved yet somewhat disappointed that the cloud did not hold up like I always imagined it would. Yet I still love to think of me sitting on a cloud, watching the world and all its cares float away. Maybe when we’re with Jesus one day, we’ll be so light and forgiven, that the weight of this world won’t pull us through. We’ll be free to rest on those beautiful puffs of white. Blessings on your day, Lisa
Things We Can’t Know
There are things in this life we cannot know. We can sometimes sense them lingering out of reach, yet near. Like these small homes off in the distance in the picture. We can’t know what’s going on inside these homes, what the people are doing, saying, thinking. Whether they’re at peace or not. But God knows these things. It comes down to faith, trust, belief in Someone greater. He holds the answers, He knows the way it will work, He cares for us enough to give the greatest good in the end. And it won’t just be a pretty picture….it will be the perfect picture. Blessings, Lisa “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” ~Romans 8:28
