Backyard Beauty



In our travels to the East coast this fall we saw a lot of beautiful scenery.  We were privileged to see everything from waterfalls, to covered bridges, lighthouses, sandy beaches, the fall colors, and so much more.  However, you don’t have to travel hundreds of miles to witness the beauty and grandure of God’s creation.  We are surrounded by nature’s beauty and bounty.  Sometimes it’s easy to take for granted that which is in our own backyard.  But it’s there for us to see and appreciate, if we will only open our eyes, and our hearts to all that God has placed around us.  I’m not just thinking about the beauty of creation. I also have in view the beauty, and blessings of family, friends and those we bump shoulders with on this journey called life!
