Photo was taken during the week near Torc waterfall, Killarney, Co.Kerry (Irl)

A dry summer and little rain during the past few weeks, has meant that many rivers have lower levels of water, than they normally would at this time of year. But one heavy days rain could change the balance quickly again. The river in our photo today is called the Owengarriff River.

Thought on Friday – September – 13/09/2013

‘The more you go with the flow of life and surrender the outcome to God and the less you seek constant clarity, the more you will find that fabulous things start to show up in your life.’ ~Mandy Hale

We sometimes search for an answer to everything. Life is often so complex that those answers are not there or at least not just now. We have heard about the longest journey beginning with a single step. That single step forward means we are in control, knowing where we are going and how to get there. But life often puts many things beyond our control. We can’t control the weather, the outcome of the ongoing recession, the timing of an unexpected event or crisis. Many fear that today Friday 13th is a recipe for negative events outside our control. But such fear is built on other people’s fear. Why choose to let others be the cause of your fears and worries? Today may be Friday 13th but I can choose to do something good and positive today. I can choose to do my best throughout this day. I can choose to make someone%u2019s life even a tiny bit better today. I can ask God to gently direct and get me through this day.
