Security

Linus had a security blanket

A voice of reason

In these days of political dissension, remain cheerfully hopeful, like Linus. Carry your security blanket with you. Mine is a pillow that I brought from Montana to Switzerland as a reminder:

Dream a little dream with me

Carry your security blanket or pillow and your positive energy wherever you go. Dream of a better world. Dream of a place where the security of sanity and compassion are the norm.

Happy end to October, my friends. May your day be as beautiful as mine!

Hugs,

JanBeek

That’s our DeDe. It’s been a wonderful visit here with her and our extended Swiss family & friends. Peaceful. Beautiful. Loving. 🥰 Homeward on Tuesday. 😣🤨🌨️🥶‼️

Beautiful Madison Range

Clouds over Jack Creek Canyon & Big Sky
Breathtaking!

Such a gorgeous evening to sit out on the deck!

Come sit a spell with me!

Love, JanBeek

Wisdom

James 3:17-18

“But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure, then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial, and sincere. Peacemakers who sow in peace raise a harvest of righteousness.”

Psalm 46:10

“Be still and know that I am God”

Have a lovely day filled with peace and the wisdom that comes from heaven.

Love, JanBeek

Ah, Yes!

Wish you were with us now!

Ennis, Montana

Madison County

Yes, it’s everything “The Madison” shows you (minus the F word)…

Ah, that’s so unnecessary! And offensive.

Clean air. Clean mouth. Clean river. Great fishing. Perfect place to live and take a walk.

Ah, yes!

Love, JanBeek

Peace and Love

Good morning to you
Hope you have a happy day
Filled with peace and love

The world’s in turmoil
But in my heart there is peace
It comes from my faith

I know God’s in charge
I know I have no control
Over behavior

Others’ behavior
Others’ mindset and actions
Are beyond my reach

Pray serenity
Is yours today and always
Let’s just love, okay?

Hugs,
JanBeek

Fairness

My friend, Lilie, posted a comment today touting her belief in “fairness to all, and justice.” I responded in affirmation. Wouldn’t our world be a better place if everyone practiced fairness to all, and justice?

Fair to all!
Celebrate fairness
What’s not fair in your life right now?
What can we do to promote fairness?
Speak up!

Promote fairness for all. Exhibit unconditional (Agape) love!

Just love!

I Can Pick a Fight

I can pick a fight

No, it won’t be that kind of fight!

I’m picking to fight for more
love
unity
and respect
in this world!

With gentleness and respect
I choose to fight for
a better world

Fight to
replace controversies
and arguments
with more
love and joy.

Love,
JanBeek

invited us to write a poem or prose

So, the blog above does that.
Thank you, David, for the challenge.

I Can TRUST

Three out of four of the devotionals I read yesterday and today had the word TRUST as one of the main topics. Everytime I see the word trust, I draw a rectangle around it and affirm, “I Can Trust.” Today I decided to write about TRUST in my journal, “I Can and I Will, Watch Me.” My mind just thought about it in a Haiku format. Here’s what the result was:

I CAN Trust

I know I can trust –
The world may feel chaotic,
But I reclaim peace.

Unsettling events,
An unknown future,
Don’t define my mood.

I am claiming peace.
I see where my power lies:
It’s trusting in God.

What I want in life,
Peace, love, joy, kindness and faith,
Are mine when I trust.

I know I can trust
In the Ruler of my heart
To heal what’s broken.

Heal the world’s chaos,
Bring back Unity for all.
I can trust my God!

Thinking of you and sending love your way.
Trusting Him to guide you and me through the storms of life.
What storms are you facing?

Thanks for visiting…
