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.
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.
Some pictures from random outings in the past couple of weeks. The gardens are a beautiful place right now.
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 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.
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.
Find a way to do what is right
no matter how hard it seems.
Don’t follow the path of the wicked
even if it looks easy
It’s better to fear the Lord.
And remember that not even the wisest people know everything,
even if they say they do.
Trust God.
Enjoy life.
Be Christ to all you meet.
Spent a couple of the past afternoons out at the holistic gardens. Some fun stuff out there, though I really didn’t get as much as I’d like. Possibly more to come.
May you reflect on your life
blessings and trials
putting in perspective
both the joys and cares of the world.
May you embrace sorrow
and allow it to refine you.
May you control your temper
and not give way to anger.
And may you accept the way God works
trusting His sovereign plan
remembering that nothing in this life is certain.
May you find satisfaction in the Lord,
creator, sustainer, redeemer,
the one who gives meaning and value
to all things.
May you enjoy the things you have
instead of desiring what you don’t.
And may you know the power of Christ –
transforming
despair into hope
vengeance into peace
death into perfect and eternal life.
