A Little Tea Party
Welcome back to another of Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4.
This week could we talk about your personal thoughts?
1. Do you find yourself day dreaming about your situation and things you would love to do if only...? Always, my whole life I have been a dreamer. It helps me today with all that is going on in our country and the world.
2. If you are having tea/coffee, a little break in the day does your mind wander off to other thoughts and meditations. Yes, I often pray when I am alone in my thoughts and while all the other members of our household are working. Today I took a little break and had some milk chocolate tea biscuits. It is 89 outside right now. So I did not have my London Fog tea with Lavender Earl Grey. Just ice tea.
3. Do you find yourself meditating or revisiting in your mind a scripture, verse from a book you've read and it's impact on you? Yes always again! Today I found the perfect verse: " I will lead the blind in a way that they do not know, I will guide them. I will turn the darkness before them to light, the rough places into level ground. These are the things I do, and I do not forsake them.: Isiaiah 4:26 It helps me prepare for the way our world is going. My trust is in God Himself.
4. Do you find yourself sometimes replaying conversations with others? Are there books or movies that stay vivid in your mind? People always come to mind with reminders of things about them whether they are here or not. Some old TV programs or movies stick to my mind too.. Fried Green Tomatoes, (face it girls, I'm older, I have more insurance). Sweet Home Alabama, "Why you wanna marry me anyway?", "So I can kiss you, anytime I want to." Love Rachel Hannah and Hope Holloway books. Well written and not trashy. I don't like lots of inappropriate entertainment at all.
Thank you to ANNIE for hosting this.

I like to dream too. As I get older I find it easier to dream but also stay content.
That's a very good verse!
What a lovely reflection! I can relate to finding comfort in scripture and the peace that comes from quiet moments with a cup of tea. Your chosen verse is especially comforting—such a beautiful reminder that we're never alone, even when the way forward is unclear. Thank you for sharing!
I enjoyed reading your answers. I love reading too!
Reading has always been my favorite pass time, that's for sure. And yes, my mind wanders a lot; I'm always ready to day dream and imagine.
Blessings!
I don't have time to meditate because I spend it fretting over LIFE.. the only way to shut down my fretter is to read a book. each day after lunch I lay down in bed with my book and read for 2 hours. every single day, that is my meditatio/tea party that rests me and rests my mind.
It is lovely to be able to take a walk in dreamland for a bit each day, isn't it.
Yes content for Heaven sigh....I need prayer if you would be so kind. Thank you.
We need quiet moments. Thank you for your kind heart. If you pray I need pray. Thank you very much.
Thank you. If you pray would you pray for me? Thank you.
I think the older we get the easier it is to drift away somedays. I really need prayer if you would pray. You have such a kindness about you. Thank you.
Yes getting away from the ways of the world is a nice quiet break, I know you pray, would you please pray for me. Life is hard, you know I believe in prayer. Thank you.
