A cheerful heart has a continual feast. Proverbs 15:15
We are never poor when our hearts have a continual feast: The company of friends around a picnic table sharing chocolate, sharing the beauty of nature, sharing life. Walking at sunrise, catching the making of the day, the fog, the mist, the colour. Walking a winters day in gentle rain, smelling the fresh earth, and jumping puddles. The blessings from God in greeting the stranger we meet along the way, the rubbing of a horses snout as he leans over the fence for a morning greeting Godly encounters and the countless blessing God gives us in our lives, his comfort and his love.
I read this from Iris Murdock: One of the secrets of a happy life is continuous small treats.
(and I just saw another in the tiny blue flowers, on spindly stems waving their joy in the breeze.)
Let the peace of Christ dwell in your heart. Anne, servant of the Lord.
Blessings dressed in blue.
