Welcome dear friend, it is so lovely to have you drop by for our time of reflection…

Blueberries, flavouring black Ceylon tea is my choice today, taken with a Macadamia & honey bar as my treat of deliciousness.

Blueberries are great boosters to our immune system & make this particular tea blend very satisfying & healthy at the same time! I have a little Blueberry bush growing in my garden, the bush gets full of plump juicy little dark blueberries.

Just ripe for picking, when a sneaky little Wattle bird decides to have a feast & I am left with only a few! Oh well, she finds our garden a haven in which to raise her chicks, so I don’t really mind.

We also have a Macadamia orchard in the area, these trees flourish here in Australia, my absolute favorite in the nut family, combined with honey this sweet bar is perfect with this tea blend…

Role Models

We glean so much in childhood from the positive examples around us…don’t you think….I grew up in a home that followed God’s principles & was taught in schools that gave reverence, awe & respect to Him.

The positive legacies left to us from those who have gone before are also very important & influential…

Some of the blessed legacies I gained from my grandparents, were knowing my father’s parents met at a church picnic. And observing my mother’s parents loving & honoring God in their lives.

I was fascinated to hear the story of my great Aunt spending her adult life helping & ministering to those suffering from leprosy on a remote Island in the Pacific, where she ultimately gave her life, surrounded by those same sufferers who had grown to love her.

Road of Faith

While these examples & legacies are very positive signposts for us on the road of faith…we were each created for a individual relationship with our Creator.

Each of us has a personal invitation to go on our own spiritual journey to find that relationship with Him…

This search may take some to exotic destinations (mine was to Penang, Pearl of the Orient Malaysia), some will experience distractions & get side tracked, some will of their own choosing take alluring detours along the way, while others will remain in safer locals….or procrastinate…

Though the name on the ticket to this adventure is your’s alone, it is not transferable & remains an open ticket only for the time that is allotted to you, it’s your individual journey to choose to travel or not…

A point to reflect upon though…is….none of us know the date, time or place of our final departure, my advice to you my dear friend…is…don’t wait or procrastinate.

The invitation & ticket for the adventure of your life is there waiting now, it has already been paid with a great high price…

Whether you have got distracted, side tracked, detoured or are yet to begin the journey…He is calling out to you….As shared in Seasons & generations…

Just like the Macadamia & blueberry plants…you too will grow & flourish when planted in His care…

Until next time…
