Still getting used to navigating... I would like to post a picture each day and perhaps say a few things...

Today... Transfiguration.  When Jesus appeared to three of the Disciples in garments that were gleaming, brighter than bright; "in garments that could not be made brighter even if bleached".  Now, to us moms out there... that would be bright, indeed.

Pastor asked how we envision Christ.  I would have to say that I see Christ as my safe place, a healing place.  A place of comfort and completeness.  He stands there in all of His Glory extending his arms to me- waiting and welcoming.

I chose the picture of the horizon at Lake Perry today.  We constantly stand at a place of separation and a place of joining.  Either leading or following, facing each day with love or anger.  The choice we make will make us or break us.  I visited with a friend this morning and she shared that each day was a struggle.  Throughout my years I have tried to learn the lesson of baby steps.  One day at a time.  We're going to mess up and stumble.  We're going to conquer and soar.  But at the end of each day as we lay our heads down and (hopefully) say our prayers- Jesus will be standing before us- bidding us a good night.

In the morning we will rise and He will be beside us to carry, encourage, support and comfort us.  May we see His Glory each day and treat the people around us with the love and respect each of us deserves.
