Revel In The Nature of God's Beauty

All you have to do is go outside and look around. If nothing else just look at the sky! This morning I grabbed the camera, my phone, car keys and shouted to Carly, our dog, that we were going for a ride...it was short but she always gets excited to get to go for a ride! It use to be a truck ride but she can no longer jump that high and has put on a good bit of weight in her old age. And I'm not up for picking her behind up very often either at my age! We bought a car from our daughter-in-law that she and it scoot around in these days. It's older, low to the ground and easy on gas. I don't let Carly ride in my nice car these days! When we arrived at the edge of the woods and I parked next to the barn. I noticed how bright the sun was starting to get but it was still nice and cool. As we jumped out of the car I spotted a butterfly and bee on a purple thistle flower. The light was often very bright, I had forgotten my sunglasses, my eyes tried to adjust to the bright morning sunlight but my eyes filled with tears. It made it a bit difficult to see as I scooted though the tall grasses, thinking that I will probably encounter lots of pesky ticks and chiggers! YUCK!!! So far so good though! I'm hoping they don't show up later :0/! We had a very mild winter so they are out in full force this season! Fortunately, I had so much beauty to see that I was bursting with my normal desire and enthusiasm to take it all in so I tip toed for a while then said,” to heck with it”(prayed that the bug spray would work on me), as I plowed right through to the open field. It's always the little things that I get so excited about, spotting a new dragonfly, a tiny blue butterfly that seemed to pose for me and the sunlight peeking through the trees just along the creek bed and along the road was spectacular. So, I encourage you open your eyes to what God has created and to revel in nature's beauty. I try to do it daily myself! It is good for you I promise!
