Sound of the waves


There is something about being at the beach and the glorous roar and sound of the waves that fills my heart with joy!  Maybe it is the power and might of the sea, the calming effect it has on my sould and wonder that fills my heart in the witness of its majestic splendor.  

Whatever it is, I wish I could bottle it and take it with me always!!  Just the thought of being by the water, walking in the sand, catching the early sounds of the day got me moving and out of the house.  

Guess I need to remember that the next time I want to hit the snooze button on the alarm, talk myself out of doing something that I know I need to do and that is good for my body, mind, spirit and soul.

Thankfully, it was pretty easy this vacation, yes there truly is someting about the sounds of the waves.

Back at the beginning of Lent I ordered a revised translation from Pauline Books, it took a few months but I received the book recently and have been loving it. I enjoy very similar translations to my penguin classic and I am blessed by the reflections and prayers at the end of each section. And

Usefulness of Adversity

  Today the reading I turned to was Usefulness in Adversity. For me it reminds me to draw closer to God, to seek His wisdom and guidance and to always remember that it is He who sees my heart.

Avoiding rash judgement

I love starting my day with a random reading from the Imitation of Christ!  Somehow it always seems to be just what I need to hear for that day.  This morning was no different, the reading was on avoiding rash judgement.
