Life Under the Sun!

 Hello dear ones,

 We are so thankful to our Creator for all of His blessings!  O Lord, how great are Your works!  Your thoughts are very deep.  For You, Lord,  have made me glad through Your work; we will triumph in the work of Your hands.  Let us shout joyfully to Him with psalms! The book of psalms

                                               Here is a glimpse of His works . . .

 

"Spring is the time of year when it is summer in the sun and winter in the shade."

~ Charles Dickens   

I Love Birds, Flowers and, of course, Primavera!!!

 She enjoys rain for its wetness, winter for its cold, summer for its heat.  She love rainbows as much for fading as for their brilliance.  It is easy for her, she opens her heart and accepts everything."

Barn Swallows are always so much fun to watch them grow and learn how to fly!

Second year of Tree Swallows nesting in our backyard.  What a delight it has been!

A Beautiful Promise!

Hello Darlings,

I want to share with you God's beautiful sign of the covenant between Him and the earth.  I took these photos yesterday at sunset.  Be blessed by His promises!

Not only one, but double rainbow

"I set my rainbow in the cloud, and it shall

be for the sign of the covenant between

Me and the earth."

"It shall be, when I bring a cloud over the 

earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud...

Genesis 9:13-17

  

Have a blessed day!

Lots of Love,

Celebrate the Splendor of Spring

What is it about spring that fascinates us?  Perhaps, the anticipation of flowers blooming, trees blossoming... beautiful shades of all colors, sparkling sunshine warming the air, and birds singing their sweet melodies... truly a wonder to behold!

I invite you for a walk in our garden... Enjoy God's precious gifts!

"Tis my faith that every flower

enjoys the air it breathes!"

~William Wordsworth

Spring

The sun lies light on a jade-green hill,

There's a burst of song from a loosened rill,

The wind warms the breast of

the new-turned sod,

And the note of a bird

links earth with God!

~Anne Elizabeth Maddock

I love Spring anywhere, but if I

could choose, I would always greet

it in a garden.

~Ruth Stout

The Spring of God

Across the edges of the world

there blows a wind

Mysterious with perfume of a Spring;

A Spring that is not of the

kindling earth,

That's more than scent of bloom

or gleam of bud;

The Spring of God in flower!

~William A. Percy

"A Flower's appeal is in its

contradictions-so delicate in

form yet strong in fragrance,

so small in size yet big in

beauty, so short in life yet

long on effect."

~Adabella Radici

How lovely it is to delight in

the rejuvenation of nature.
