To The End of the Earth

Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.”  -T.S. Eliot
 

To the End of the Earth…where can I run to, and you are not there?

To the End of the Earth

Where can I run to,

And you are not there?

Even to the end of the earth,

Lord of my life, you are everywhere.

 

I am never out of your reach,

Whether I am with others or alone.

Even to the end of the earth,

Your hands reach down to me from your throne.

 

You cause my heart to rejoice when times are good;

You are by my side when I am sad.

Even to the end of the earth,

Lord, you are the best friend I’ve ever had.

 

When I’m pushed to my limits,

Running in circles night and day.

Even to the end of the earth,

Lord, I surrender all to you…lead the way.

To the end of the earth…sometimes life seems to push us exactly that far.  When we give our all, and there is nothing left to give.  When we’ve done our best, but it seems that’s never good enough.  Those are the times when we actually realize just how far we can go.

Life does have a way of stretching us to our limits, and our resources eventually do run out…but unless we allow ourselves to reach the “end of the earth,” we’ll never know what the maker of the earth can do.  For with God there are no limits, his resources never run out, and his best is far superior than we can even imagine.

My challenge to you is to go ahead…stretch yourself, find the extent of your limits…then let God take you to the end of the earth…and beyond.

Peace and love,

Felecia

Where Do I Go From Here?

Where do I go from here?  Wondering what is the next step one should take can apply to almost any situation in life.

“Only those who risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.”  T.S. Eliot

Where do I go from here?  That is a question that I am certain has been asked by many at some point in their lives.  It is a questions that doesn’t necessarily have to do with traveling from one destination to the next.  Wondering what is the next step one should take can apply to almost any situation in life.  Life in itself is full of uncertainties, as well as countless opportunities.  Unlike plugging in an address into a GPS device and receiving a clearly charted out route, knowing what direction to take when it comes to making critical decisions can be quite confusing.  All too often, we find ourselves so far off course, that we feel lost.

So how does one answer the question, where do I go from here?  I know when I face a fork in the road in my own life, many times I tend to pause and linger too long “taking in the scenery.”  I research, study and weigh my options so much that I suffer from information overload.  I fill my brain with so much “stuff” that, what used to be the perfect amount of information to carry along with me as I move forward, has turned into an oversized mass that I cannot possibly proceed with on my own.  At that point, I feel disoriented and need to seek help from someone else.  Even finding someone to help me can be challenging sometimes…but not when I seek the right source first.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will direct your paths.”  Proverbs 3:5-6

Where do I go from here?  Although I may not know exactly how to navigate my way to making the best decision, I do know who will always lead me in the right direction.  God is fully capable of and willing to help each of us through any challenges that we face.  He’ll not only direct us and see us safely through any situation, he’ll also work the outcome to be the very best for us.  He’ll make the way clear for us and stay right by our side until we get to where we need to be.  There is one thing that has to be done individually first though…we need to ask HIM, where do I go from here?

Where will you go from here?  May you find your answer in Him.

On New Beginnings

On New Beginnings

new beginningsA Quote to Carry You

January 5, 2015

“For last year’s words belong to last year’s language, and next year’s words await another voice.  And to make an end is to make a beginning.”  T.S. Eliot

New beginnings…just saying the words fills me with a sense of hope and renewed vigor.  Tossing away the weight of the dinginess of the past year and opening my arms wide in fresh anticipation of the brightness that a whole new one has to offer…I say, let the doors of 2015 fly wide open!

May your new beginnings of the New Year be the best one yet!

Peace and love,

Felecia

On Coping

On Coping

on copingA Quote to Carry You

October 27, 2014

“If you aren’t in over your head, how do you know how tall you are?” T.S. Eliot

Dealing with obstacles no matter how minor they may appear can turn our world upside down if we let them.  When a crisis hurls itself my way, it threatens to gnaw away at me until I give it my full attention.  Sometimes it isn’t until after I let it consume me completely that I realize what should have only been an appetizer, became the entire meal!

Coping with any situation in life not only involves making decisions… acting upon those decisions is what turns them into solutions.

Peace and love,

Felecia
