Living

Living orchid
(amazing when you consider Herself was once banned
from keeping plants by her work colleagues who set up the
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Plants.
She's come a long way since then.
Thank goodness.)

Repent

Repenting is so much more than an apology.
But saying sorry is a good place to start.

Sacrifice

It's Day 14 of the Lent word-a-day challenge. Today's word is SACRIFICE.

Sacrifice doesn't have to be big to be meaningful.
A text to a struggling friend can be a small sacrifice of a couple of minutes to you
but can make a huge difference to them.

Rest (2)

This is how I enjoy resting when it's cold and windy outside.

It's hard to beat a good book and a mug of tea.

Chosen

Look what Themselves chose this afternoon! Planting this should take care of tomorrow...

Chosen.

Good

When life is tough, a small bear with hot chocolate and cake is GOOD.

Accomplish

Today's word for the Lent challenge is ACCOMPLISH.

Trying to accomplish something.

Dazzling

The word for today's Lent challenge is DAZZLING, and here are two photos from our trip to Monsal Head last summer.

Sun rays over a waterfall.

Beautiful blue sky over Headstone Viaduct.

Pray

Herself is learning to be real with God in prayer. I like it best when she sings but sometimes she shouts angrily and other times she cries. It's messy but, from a small bear's understanding, I don't think God minds. I think He likes mess and realness coming from the heart.

Learning to be real in prayer.

Rest

This is Day 5 of the Lent challenge (for days 3 and 4 you will have to visit Herself's blog). Today's word is: REST.

Just chilling on a Sunday in the garden

Tempted

This is Day 2 of the Lent challenge: TEMPTED.

Full

Lent starts today! Herself and I thought it would be fun to do Rethink Church's Lent photo-a-day challenge. Sometimes I will post a photo and other times Herself will write a short post on her blog.

Today's word prompt is FULL.

Full of beauty.
