HAS SHE GOT ROCKS IN HER HEAD?

Rock On – Compassion Redefined!

How do you define compassionate living?  It just may be broader

than you have considered . . .

Our sense of community

and compassionate intelligence must be extended to all life forms, plants, animals, rocks, rivers, and human beings. This is the story of our past and it will be

the story of our future.

– Terry Tempest Williams –

LIFE IS RUFF, RUFF!

Some Disciples Have Floppy Ears

The Lord has blessed my life with the most adorable disciple! Beany barked this morning and I assumed a neighbor kitty was in the yard, but no. He was sitting in our prayer chair wagging his tail!

Think Again!

Weight, measure, value . . . simple concepts?  Not really!

When I was very young, my dad offered me a dollar at the fair.  I was disappointed.  I heard coins jingling in his pocket!  Why would I want a piece of paper, I thought, coins were heavier so that must be more . . and better!  Silly little me!  Not always!  How do we decide value throughout our daily lives?

What do you value the most?   Being an adult, I know 25 pennies weigh more than a dollar but have less  value, but this doesn’t mean I always get the right answer when I answer the question just posed here.

• The old  lady across the street is looking bone weary as she rakes her leaves.  Mine are done so I can relax and read a book.  Value?
• Sunday morning after a tiring week.  I don’t need to get up for church.  Value?
• The 4 year old is crying  but my] show goes off in 15 minutes.  Probably nothing, she can wait.  Value?

WHAT DO YOU VALUE MOST?  The answer lies in your HEART!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You NEVER Leave Me – or Give Up On Me

Direction – A Poem From My Soul

Your love fills my soul

And your peace

Is like nothing I could imagine.

Yet,

This morning I woke with a start,

I stopped to think

And stumbled off the path.

My fear-frozen heart beat too fast

And my mind drew me

In another direction

But not a good one.

I breathed deeply,

I called out to you,

And you showed me the map

Leading me back to you.

The peace in my soul

Softly comforted me.

I smiled

Ready for a new day

Filled with wonder,

Filled with you.

NEW DAY – NEW OPPORTUNITY

 

We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools. – Martin Luther King Jr

KEEP LOOKING!

The sky is so large

Yet we often see just clouds

He gave so much more
