"Once we clearly acknowledge the soul, we can learn to hear it's cries. - Dallas Willard, Renovation Of The Heart."

It takes courage to pursue our dreams. It takes time and patience to unearth buried treasure. But I believe with all my heart that we must do both.

Mother's Day blessing

I wanted to wish all my sweet blogging mother's a Happy Mother's Day. I thought I would do it in the form of a blessing. I have always loved this scripture, but especially in The Message version does it convey the heart of it.

"I couldn't stop thanking God for you - every time I prayed, I'd think of you and give thanks. But I do more than thank. I ask the God of our Master, Jesus Christ, the God of glory - to make you intelligent and discerning in knowing him personally, your eyes focused and clear, so that you can see exactly what it is he is calling you to do, grasp the immensity of this glorious way of life he has for us, oh, the utter extravagance of his work in us who trust him - endless energy, boundless strength.

Blessings to all of you and Happy Mother's Day.
