I'm lucky to live in one of the most beautiful neighborhoods. It is an older neighborhood so it is full of huge, beautiful trees. Every fall I am amazed by the beauty that surrounds me...gorgeous colors of red, yellow, brown, and gold. I think this is one of the things that makes fall my favorite season. I snapped this picture of the Crepe Myrtle that is right beside my driveway. The picture really does not do it justice. It is full of all different colors. A lovely and comforting sight as I'm returning home each day.
Glimpses of God-November 10, 2010
Whenever I see beauty in nature my thoughts always go to God and his perfect creation...I may have mentioned it before in my post about the sky. But every time I drive through my neighborhood and see all of these majestic trees covered in colors that just take my breath away, how can not think of the creator of such beauty. I've been singing this song in my head all day long....
How Great Thou Art
Stanza 1:
O Lord my God,
When I in awesome wonder
Consider all
The works Thy Hand hath made,
I see the stars,
I hear the mighty thunder,
Thy pow'r throughout
The universe displayed;
Stanza 2:
When through the woods
And forest glades I wander
I hear the birds
Sing sweetly in the trees;
When I look down
From lofty mountain grandeur
And hear the brook
And feel the gentle breeze;
Refrain:
Then sings my soul,
My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art!
How great Thou art!
Then sings my soul,
My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art!
How great Thou art!
Stanza 3:
When Christ shall come,
With shouts of acclamation,
And take me home,
What joy shall fill my heart!
Then I shall bow
In humble adoration
And there proclaim,
"My God, how great Thou art!"
Refrain:
Then sings my soul,
My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art!
How great Thou art!
Then sings my soul,
My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art!
How great Thou art!
