Did God make a beautiful world, or what!
Today, in the Pacific Northwest, it was just about perfect! The sun shone brilliantly all day, the breeze was slightly cool and gentle, and trees and bushes have begun spreading color everywhere. Unfortunately, I had to work today, so I couldn’t just “go outside and play,” but , because I work my own U-First business from my home, I have a huge window at my desk that allows me to observe the flowering crab, the lilac bush, the azaelea, and the rhododendron awakening to the spring warmth right in my own front yard. Ummm! How my heart stirs at so much beauty all around me. And I feel sorry for people who seriously don’t believe in God, because it’s in such exquisite moments as these that one just simply must give thanks. So, on their behalf, and with all of my heart, I offer praise to the God of the Universe for making such a glorious world!

Hi there,
Where are you from? Is it a secret?

I share your appreciation of this world and your thankful heart. It is so amazing how God made us to enjoy what is around us. Then He gave us minds to explore things too small for us to see, too far away for us to see, and a hope for what we will one day see.
