In the forest.

 
 


There is something about being in nature and hearing the sound of gently running water that soothes my soul.
Walking barefoot along the soft, springy turf of the forest floor...
Feeling the dappled sunlight warm on my skin...
Dipping my feet in the stream and delighting in the absolute stillness and silence of the forest.

I always leave the forest feeling refreshed and at peace, ready to face the world beyond the trees...

May your week ahead be a beautiful and blessed one, lovely readers...

Dreams and Discontentment...


I am a dreamer.  I love dreaming, imagining, wondering...
I love lying awake at night, simply thinking about the many wonderful things I would like to do and the amazing places I would like to see. 

Many times my dreaming can lead to discontentment in my everyday life and I find I have to guard against disillusionment with where I find myself.
Hopes and dreams are truly beautiful things and should inspire us to live with intention.
However, they should not distract us from living fully in the present and embracing the beauty of every moment.

How sad it would be if we spent all our days wishing for something more than what we have in the here and now, only to realise much further down the road that true happiness was found in those quiet days at home and the adventure in everyday living.

 "The fact is, if we are not content with what we have, we will never be content with what we think we want.  They key to joyous living is to embrace the will of God and to receive with gratitude the gifts He chooses to give us in each season of life."  ~ Nancy Leigh De Moss

Are you purposing to live fully where the Lord has you right now?
Embrace the season you are in...
Ask the Lord to lead you and to fill your heart with His dreams and desires.
Hope in Him, He will bring everything to pass, each in its own season.

Blessings and love in Christ... 

"The time to be happy is now, the place to be happy is here..."  ~ Robert Green Ingersoll
