Holy Week-5 Days Until Easter

Just when I was ready to trade out this winter wreath on at the front porch for a spring decoration, a robin had another idea. See the nest she built today on top?!  Talk about the perfect Easter basket! #Easter #Lent #Journey  #porch #spring #decoration #birds #Easterbasket

Palm Sunday

A six year old girl’s POV of Jesus riding into Jerusalem on a donkey on Palm Sunday. Makes me wonder if just because we can’t always stand high enough to see Who’s holding the reins, maybe it’s enough to know they’re going in the right direction… #Easter #Lent #PalmSunday #Jesus  #Jerusalem #direction #journey #donkey

9 Days Until Easter

When I can’t quite remember a ”verse” from my life, I reach out to the friends who sang along with me then, because Lent is not only a solo experience of silent reflection; some days, it’s about hearing the old harmonies and singing them into a new song. 

Thank you, sacredbee.com for another joyful vision of life.#Easter #Lent #journey #life #friends #reflection #harmonies #song #sacredbee

10 Days Until Easter 

“Think where man’s glory begins and ends and say my glory was I had such friends” – a lesson from William Butler Yeats reminds me today that every blessing from heaven was realized in my life because a God-given friend believed in me or helped me or just told me truth I didn’t always want to hear. Such friends. Such gratitude. #Easter #Lent #Journey #gratitude #glory #Yeats #blessing #heaven #friends #truth #TBAA #touchedbyanangel #POstables

12 Days Until Easter

This wonderful “children’s” book by Lily Murray was an Easter gift for a little friend. But I had to get one for myself, too.  Such a wonderful reminder that each of us is born a unique child of the Creator, with a purpose and a destiny to fulfill.  #Easter #Lent #Journey #child #children #Creator #LilyMurray #purpose #destiny #peopleawards

13 Days Until Easter

 

Look closely. Turkeys came to visit me today – a Thanksgiving moment in the middle of Lent! So thankful for so much today –  Family, Friends, Faith, and the wild surprises that nature can deliver just outside our window if only we remember to look.  #Easter #Lent #Journey #thankful #family #friends #faith #surprises #nature

14 Days Until Easter 

Found today at a Sunday morning flea market.  Oh my…a Lenten lesson perhaps? “Woman! Thou aren’t NOT helpless. Go forth into the world and learn how to change your own tire, and the truth shall set you free!” #Easter #Lent #Lesson #Journey #fleamarket #women #independent #strong #smart #free #freedom #thetruthshallsetyoufree

18 Days Until Easter

Look hard and you’ll see that after five years of sun and rain and wind and drought, our little backyard tree has survived and managed to produce…one orange. One beautiful orange. And somehow that single, sweet, determined result seems more precious that if there had been forty.  As we prepare our hearts for Easter, does this remind you of anything in your life for which you’re particularly grateful? #Easter #Lent #Journey #orange #determined #grateful #gratitude
