...4.26.15...














You wonder what it’d be
like to be loved for everything
you are & I want to take
your face in my hands
& say, You already are.
Now, you just have to
remember to feel it.
~storypeople
simply put.
you only live once?
false.
you live every day.
you only die once!
enjoy the moments.
welcome to coffee hour.
welcome to this Sunday morning.
just BE.

"There will always be chaos, be still, breathe and seek inner peace."
- Lulu Trevena

...4.12.15...






you deserve a day where worries don't get in the way of anything.
a day where even if some people are insensitive or unkind,
you're not going to mind because the blessings
in your life are far greater than the burdens
that people are trying to place on you.
~stay positive~

spring is near.
i hear it in the birds chorus.
i feel it in the warmth of the sun.
i smell it in the earth.
it is well.
with my soul.
welcome to coffee hour.
welcome to this Sunday morning.
just BE.

...Be Still. week thirteen...

Dorothea Lange

When everything is moving and shifting, 
the only way to counteract chaos is stillness. 
When things feel extraordinary, strive for ordinary. 
When the surface is wavy, 
dive deeper for quieter waters.
Kristin Armstrong

week thirteen.
i have whispered it here often.
my desire to just BE.
kim's lesson this week.
is about what our vision.
of BE'ing still.
looks like.
she offered to us.
what her stillness would look like.
the photos i've captured today.
is a big part of mine.
i can truly.
just sit.
on my porch.
in the warmth of the sun.
and watch these happy bees.
explore these tulips.
before i know it.
eighty-seven photos have been taken.
and a sense of stillness.
awakens in my soul.
boring?
mundane?
to some.
ordinary!
extraordinary!
to me.
in the chaos of life...
find what gives you the power.
to.
just BE.

“May the resurrection power of Christ,
awake in us a greater spiritual force and strength, 
so that we can passionately pursue our God-given dreams.” 
― Lailah Gifty Akita

He is Risen.

Amen.
welcome to coffee hour.
welcome to this Sunday morning.

...BE still. week twelve...


"maybe the journey isn't so much about becoming anything.
maybe it's about un-becoming everything 
that really isn't you
so that you can be who you were meant
to be in the first place."
~butterfliesandpebbles
