A Compass









God doesn't give us a map, He gives us a compass. 
Our next step is the most important, following our compass directed His spirit. 
We are not tourists in this life, we are explorers.
Thoughts from today's message by the lovely "L" who spoke while our pastor was sharing elsewhere.
Another ladybug enjoying our cornflowers. I affectionately call this variety Tiger Ladybugs.

    Jeśli ktoś potrafi posługiwać się kompasem, nie zbłądzi w życiu. Cudna biedronka. Pozdrawiam.
    If anyone knows how to use a compass, not err in life. Cute ladybug. Yours.

    I like how you captured this cute lady bug teethering on the tip of a leaf blade. It is different too - stripey instead of polka-dotted.

    Great analogy. I always feel like an explorer when I'm out with my camera feeling blessed by each new flower, insect or other creature I see.

    Gorgeous pictures Karen! I saw some ladybugs in the garden today, probably looking for a safe place to spend the coming winter.

    I saw terrible fires in Australia in the news today. I hope you're all OK and I hope the fires will be under control soon.
