This is a picture of a rose that I was
able to capture with my camera. The color is
so beautiful with the sky behind it!
Since I have been in Tennessee,
I have LOVED getting to enjoy all the different
seasons God has created. In Florida,
we don't have the changes in color, but it is so
breathtaking with each new season!
I LOVE flowers and all the colors, shapes,
and details of each individual flower.
It reminds me of how great God is and how
loving He is to us. He gives us
soooo many little blessings each day to point us
to Him...even in His creation.
It then reminds me of the seasons of
my life, how they are continually changing...each
stage just as breathtaking and wonderful
as the next. How can the God of the universe
be so loving to bless me with so
much? How can He be so interested in my
life that He allows to experience
so many wonderful privileges? He is so precious,
and I am constantly reminded of that.
In every season, there are those nasty days
that are filled with thunderstorms and
rain. BUT when that storm is passed, the beauty
comes forth and makes for wonderful days
walking in the sun, riding a bike,
picking shells on the beach, or just relaxing in
a hammock swinging in the breeze.
This is true in our lives. Every season is wonderful,
yet we still have those storms. God places
those in our lives to only make the
next day more beautiful. Testings and trials
may come, but he still loves us.
The day comes when we see clearly why those
struggles came, and we are so thankful
for them. Never forget: each season
is a blessing, and the storms that come
will only make it more beautiful on the other side!
