Pax vobiscum......

it's times like these
(such as when I entered into this botanical conservation in California)



that I exit myself.......

that may sound dramatic to some people, but any worthy experience of self is dramatic


i just stood there




amongst those towering palm branches i wasn't thinking of anyone but Him

not me

not my husband

Him



some of the grounds were constructed by man yes, but so heavenly put together......


the three of us walked practically in silence -

even though this holy week brings remembrance of His sufferings, but also the peace we know within...through Him and with Him

my prayers are with all of you who are going through the same spirituality right now.......

and for all of you who don't agree with me......

one thing is for certain.....


~we all desire peace...to give and to receive~

so peace be with you all this holy week.........et cum spiritu tuo

    Breathtaking. I feel the same way every time I go to the ocean...it is why it is my favorite place on earth.

    You are so lovely(with Him) in those gardens.

    Anne Marie-

    Thank you once again for your inspiration and above all for your open spirit that allows the Holy Spirit to work through you.

    This post could be titled resurrection.

    Have a blessed week-

    Laura
