Let God in...

The thought that we choose to either LET GOD IN or choose to KEEP GOD OUT may be a strange one and yet more true that we may ever realise.
The Psalms tell us that GOD IN WITHIN which may even confuse us more and yet, in truth, we are the Master of our Ship...  we choose...
God is like a gentle Father who loves us so much that He allows us complete freedom to make choices and whatever choices we make determine who we are and what we become.
Of course our Father looks on us as the little child which we are and therefore is constantly guiding us through all that is happening in our lives.
If we are willing and able to listen to that Quiet Voice inside, then we are choosing to Let God in!

MOVING FORWARD...

Life has a way of pushing us forward.  Things happen / people and circumstances change and we are faced with a decision to let go and move forward with our lives.
This can only be a good thing as by nature we may have a tendency to hold on to what we have and who we believe we have become.
When we decide to leave the past behind and move forward into a new and brighter future, then the whole universe will respond to us.
I believe God has a plan for each one of us.  Whatever it might be is up to us to discover.
Can we?  Will we open our hearts to all that is new and trust that Providence is guiding us forward?
Why not.  We have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
Let us go forward with confidence and we will be surprised by all that will come our way.

IRELAND

Ireland is beautiful!
I've just returned from a Retreat Getaway held on an organic farm in West Cork called Douce Mountain Farm run by Gerd and Renata.
This is a very special and wonderful place where we were spoiled with the best of good food and good company.
We enjoyed sessions on Positive Psychology / Creative Writing / Sound Therapy and Zen meditation and climbing walks in  Glengarriff Nature Reserve where we 'discovered' Barley Lake up on top of the mountain!
Perhaps the most precious time of all was spent with the wonderful people who were part of  the Retreat Getaway.
It can be an adventure to travel around the world to exotic places, yet it's such a treat to 'discover' the rich treasures of Ireland.
