We came upon this crystalline rainbow … and to my soul, it was like the covenant given to Noah, since I had just endured a flood of grief.

I love the first touches of Fall, those first hints of transition, upon the earth. To my heart, they are signs of the earth’s rejoicing.

Sept. 16th marks the one year anniversary of my mom's passing. Her hallmarks were her faith, her hats, humming and her"crown" of gray hair.

One bird was stationary, while the other was in flight. Both were in God’s keeping. If we are following His Will, this is true of us, also.

These hay bales were an obvious sign of harvest taking place in late Summer. Come see how Jesus wants to plant righteousness in your heart.

I loved the transitional pose of this hibiscus. Come see how its "becoming" can be a lesson on God's transformation in our lives.

Wildflowers silhouetted on various surfaces remind us that our days are fleeting, yet our God is steadfast and eternal.

Charlie’s paws are imprinted right outside his door. While he’s moving this Fall, his imprint will remain. Do you know your life is similar?

Our Morning Glory displayed both positive (cling to the Lord and His ways) and negative lessons (avoid the sin that can entangle us.)

This Cross clearly marked the site of an accident. Yet later, wildflowers bloomed as if in remembrance. Life had come, full circle.

A bowed attitude keeps our heart in a place to receive God’s instruction, so that He helps us grow to be more like Himself.

This freshly-changed leaf was "elevated," posed in a weed. I found some lessons of God's presence. Come see what I discovered!

Pollen, is visibly stored on the sides of this bee. I wonder, are we storing up God’s Word like the bee, so we can share it, like honey?

Need some peace? These chairs, lined up along the water’s edge, reminded me of the need to pause, to be still and know (experience) God.

Light danced upon the seagull, upon the water. It was a reminder that the Lord highlights all of creation, even our lives.

Our cat often comes close when we pause to pray. As we join hands, we can feel God’s Spirit and His peace. This communion is infectious!

Prayer is a gift that you can give your spouse, your children, your family, friends and even to our nation. It joins us to God and others.

How does our Tiger Lily, and the flower by the same name, compare? Let’s see. Then, we’ll look at the lily lesson from Matthew 6:28.
