{scotland} part one

a story in pictures. . .

Over the summer, the Lord opened up the way for a friend and I to spend two weeks in Scotland this fall.  It was an absolutely beautiful time in ways that words can never fully communicate.  The Lord has truly hallmarked this little country in my life and it was such a blessing to go on this trip with a friend who is so surrendered to the Him.  And now, let us end the words and continue with this story in pictures. . .  


so this girl got a plane
and hopped the pond.

and she met her friend

and then they got on a bus
(they rode a lot of buses) 

and then a train


and then a ferry

and ended up on an island.
the isle of eigg in the western Hebrides 
there were many cups of tea

and tramps about and across the island

and walks down by the ocean.

the sheep didn't like us much.
yes, they all lined up and charged at us.  typical sheep behaviour? I think not. 
there was a time to share of Christ and testify to His exceeding greatness, glory and worth.

 "But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light."
1 Peter 2:9

And then it was time to travel onward. . .
