Refreshing

Saw a manta ray and a sea turtle today while kayaking in one of the most beautiful bays in the world.

God provided comfort and joy and peace in lots of unexpected ways this week.

And two weeks from now, I'll be in St. Louis with my family.

Can't lie, not much else matters right now and that's a refreshing feeling.

"What is"

New favorite artist... Anna Vandas. I found her on my Norah Pandora station. She has a song titled "What is" that talks about love and the world's way of distorting it. 

The following lyrics are from the chorus of the song, and I think they might sum up the best questions to ask ourselves in hard moments and difficult situations. 

"What is good?

What is pure?

What is right?

What is love?

What is truth?

What is holy in your sight?

.....................................

Can we be holy in your sight?

... We are holy in your sight"

Great Day...

Such a refreshing day:)

So blessed to have such encouraging people in my life.

Met new friends. Laughed with the kids I watch. Hung out with old friends. Was surprised with sweet things by my very thoughtful boyfriend.

God is creative sometimes.

He knows just what I need and when I need it.

And today that just makes me smile in thankfulness.
