When I was a kid, we waited for the Wizard of Oz to come on TV. There were no DVR's or CD's in the early 60's. A little girl Dorothy who would travel to a far away place. Her mission was to come back home and she had to find the way. I remember being excited to see this movie and yet a little scared of the OZ Voice, plus the witch. I was just a little girl and as the movie went on, I had to wait to find out it was just a man behind the voice. Have you ever been away from home and just wanted to be home? I have and I didn't have red shoes to tap three times to get me back home.
HOME ~ I have heard that home is where the heart is. Home is where you find peace and comfort of your own things. What about inside of you? Inside of me is a home and I know that God has built me into who I am today. Through it all, I've learned and I have failed. I gain and I have praised. There is a song inside of me that travels daily where I go. The song of praise and my view point of life is a daily walk with God, while other things are going on around me. Allowing God to mold me daily and I hope you do also.
Psalm 127 A song of ascents. Of Solomon.
1 Unless the Lord builds the house,
the builders labor in vain.
Unless the Lord watches over the city,
the guards stand watch in vain.
2 In vain you rise early
and stay up late,
toiling for food to eat--
for he grants sleep to those he loves.
3 Children are a heritage from the Lord,
offspring a reward from him.
4 Like arrows in the hands of a warrior
are children born in one’s youth.
5 Blessed is the man
whose quiver is full of them.
They will not be put to shame
when they contend with their opponents in court.
HOME ~ If you haven't watched the movie Wizard of Oz, take time too. It tells a deeper story of life and the importance of family. Just being around people we care about. We need to be content in our lives and still plan for this day. Reaching out of ourselves and helping others. I've been away on a family vacation and I've enjoyed it so much. I love time with my kid/adults and grandkids. I also know that we are going home today. There is no place like home as Dorothy would say. I have more family and friends there waiting to see me. I also want to see them. It's good to get away and it is good to go home. It's important to purpose time with family and extended family.
Each time I come to this beautiful lake house with my daughter and her family, I feel more at home. I get early to write and look over a lake that is calm most of the time in the mornings. A peace I really can not explain in the mornings and a grateful heart to those who worked hard. I am counting blessings this morning of 7 beautiful days.
Life is about sharing it and praying of reach other daily. I know the things that were hard in my life changed me for the better. I've learn to let go of somethings and continue to pray for others. Pictures have a way of showing others what you are doing in the moment of time, but the depth of a story is untold. Some pictures hold amazing memories and joys to my heart. To those who are close to me and read my blog, I am coming home today.
The Bible speaks of children being the heritage of God. Let us live an example best we can and allow to use us no matter where we are in life. My prayers continue for you, your families and friends. Take care of you and make time for God as you travel a new day. Giving praise in all circumstances is important and seeing what you do have in life. Thanks for taking a few minutes to share me and read this.
Have a bless day!
