The Gold Fish and Mosaic Monday

nature is God's own

color and life abounding

thanks be to God

The fish in the pond are finally coming to the top to feed so we can see them.  We knew they were still in the pond as there were none floating as if they had died, but just wondered how they were doing in all the heat.  Look!  They are thriving.

The Gerber Daisy looks like bleach had been dropped on it by accident, but no, that too is from God's palate.  Wonders all of God's creation!

Thanks be to God!

The 4th of July!!!!

Happy 4th of July!!!!!

Wishing all a grand day. Perhaps it's too hot and dry where you live to

have fireworks or parades.   Or the weather has been so bad that you're one 

without electricity.   I'm praying for you.

Nevertheless, 

Thanks be to God!!!

There's no where else on earth I'd rather live!!!

Mosaic Monday

It's 102 degrees outside and if feels like 106 degrees.  And today it's cooler than yesterday...Praying for rain.  So thought I go back and resurrect some winter scenes.  It doesn't reduce the use of the air conditioner but it does have a chilling effect...

~~~^j^~~~

Thanks be to God!!

Haiku My Heart

Hotter'n blue blazes

Dreamin' 'bout cool mountain tops

Soon and very soon

Just two more weeks and then we'll be off to Montana and Colorado!!!  Thought the air may be sullied by smoke and ashes, there's nothing like the beauty of those grand old mountains!!!

~~~^j^~~~

Thanks be to God!!!

JOY

Today I join Meri for Share the Joy Thursday.   For I believe we need to find it in my life every day no matter the realities in which we live.  God is Good in so many ways even in times of trial.

Joy comes in many forms.

And this day has the potential of
being just as grand as
,

beautiful sunrise
I must be open to it!

Thanks be to God!!!
