Flowers in Bloom

Today I walked in my yard. Flowers are blooming in so many colors and I felt satisfaction seeing the works of my labors. I have put a lot of time in that yard. It still needs a lot too- but as the colors brightened my day I felt thanks. I am so thankful for so many things. The colors, the springtime, the friends I have. I feel thankful for family and health.

How privileged I am to know that God loves mankind enough to color the world. I have lived in desolate places and still seen beauty. The flowers that pop up through the rocks. The contrast of dark cactus against blazing red and orange skies as the night appears. The stars in a velvet night.

What a loving God we serve.
