May you hear the commands of the Lord

May you hear the commands of the Lord –
signposts to guide you on life’s uncertain journey.

May you fear the Lord-
the beginning of wisdom,
the origin of understanding.

And may you live your life liberated –
resting in God’s sovereign power,
protected and completed
by the one who gives meaning to all things.

Amaryllis

The Amaryllis at the HG are incredible right now – truly an amazing site.  If you’re in the area and get a chance, you should definitely go take a look at them.  Mixture of D90 with Sigma 150 and D300 with Nikon 200.

May you await the day when all things are made new

May you discover the call of the living God,
the God of your fathers,
of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

As you follow in his footsteps, may you accept the mysteries of Christ,
certain in the embrace of his unfailing love.

And may you live the vision of God,
his partner in the transforming work of redemption,
eagerly awaiting the glorious day
when all things are made new.

May you follow the course of wisdom

May you follow the course of wisdom in your life,
choosing the right road in your journey through life.

Be humble –
a quiet spirit can overcome great mistakes.
Be a good judge of character –
it is a mistake to give great authority to foolish people.
Be vigilant, but sensible –
you can’t avoid danger in life.

And may you understand that wisdom and wise ways come from God –
that is the value of wisdom:
it helps you succeed.

May you accept with grace the gifts of the Lord

In good times and bad
may you accept with grace the gifts of the Lord.

May you not rely on your own strength and skill,
but trust in the ruler of all things.

And may you listen quietly for words of wisdom,
and follow where they lead,
knowing and believing in the triumph of heaven’s plan.
