Saturday smiles: The right words edition

February 16, 2013

psalm328

These words have been in my Bible readings all week. I didn’t know how much I needed them until today.

And these words watered my thirsty soul today.

Whatever you’re facing today, I pray the right words would find you and speak to you.

Welcome

Hi. I’m Lisa, and I’m glad you’re here. If we were meeting in real life, I’d offer you something to eat or drink while we sat on the porch letting the conversation wander as it does. That’s a little bit what this space is like. We talk about books and family and travel and food and running, whatever I might encounter in world. I’m looking for the beauty in the midst of it all, even the tough stuff. (You’ll find a lot of that here, too.) Thanks for stopping by. Stay as long as you like.
