Sometimes I feel like these docks…expectant, open, waiting for something unknown to come. Wanting to be stable, content, and steady for whatever does come my way. Afraid that somehow I’ll give way under the pressure, but God always keeps me grounded in that way He does. Praying for an open and waiting heart today, that Jesus will bring just the thing He knows is best for me today. Slainte, Lisa
Our puppy’s first glimpse of the ocean
Do you remember the first time you saw the ocean? I don’t, but I do remember early sensations of getting used to hot sand on my feet, the roar of the water, the feeling of being somewhere totally different yet comforting in its encompassing world. The Outer Banks of NC has been my training ground since the age of 3, and the feeling of the sea oats, the dunes, the unpredictable surf is the best medicine to me. God has used water in my life to draw me closer to Him, to be able to calm down and listen to His voice and His only. I thank Him for it, for waves and sky and clouds and sand and sounds and salt air. Whether you’re by the sea or dreaming of it today, thank Him for the things you love. Lisa
Walking by the sound on the Outer Banks….blue sky, puffy clouds, crystal clear reflections, green reeds…..happiness. 🙂
Pray that your day is filled with peace, joy, contentment, love….all the things that soothe your soul. Slainte, Lisa
I took this on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, shortly after a light rain had passed through. It really emptied out the beach, except for a few hardy souls. I love staying on the beach in summer when it showers, as long as there’s no thunder and lightning. You’re wet anyway, and there is the peace that descends when the masses retreat. May God bless your weekend with peace and joy. Lisa
