Loving the big spectacular images of spring can be breath taking and impossible to ignore.
It takes a little more effort to fully experience the fullness of what is going on. The flowers in this photo bloom in my yard every year. I have never bothered to appreciate them before. To learn their names or pay attention to their life span. You have to get small to see it, smell it, know it.
Yesterday.... I got SMALL!
Beautiful! I've been enjoying your posts, and share them with my mom. I had to share this scripture today, because it fits so well:
ReplyDeleteLuke 12:22-32
And He said to His disciples, "For this reason I say to you, do not worry about your life, as to what you will eat; nor for your body, as to what you will put on.
23"For life is more than food, and the body more than clothing.
24"Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap; they have no storeroom nor barn, and yet God feeds them; how much more valuable you are than the birds!
25"And which of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life's span?
26"If then you cannot do even a very little thing, why do you worry about other matters?
27"Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; but I tell you, not even Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of these.
28"But if God so clothes the grass in the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, how much more will He clothe you? You men of little faith!
29"And do not seek what you will eat and what you will drink, and do not keep worrying.
30"For all these things the nations of the world eagerly seek; but your Father knows that you need these things.
31"But seek His kingdom, and these things will be added to you.
32"Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has chosen gladly to give you the kingdom.
Beautiful Anne.
ReplyDeleteTo think those words were written over 1,900 years ago is humbling. What it must have been like to hear those words spoken by Him.
Thanks
I normally wouldn't do this here, but there is no way to contact you! Anyway I was having some problems with my blog and I had to combine two, but I can't seem to combine my followers. www.ransomedtoride2.blogspot.com If you are still interested in following along.
