CAN YOU IMAGINE?





























I ventured out early this morning once I glanced out a west facing window and saw that the full moon was visible and the clouds looked like they were going to cooperate. I few blocks from home is some high ground where I knew I would have an unobstructed view where I could take some pictures.

I sat there and watched in awe of the beauty we have been blessed with and thought about all the turmoil that exists in some relationships (a few different scenarios playing out all at once) of people I know and care deeply for. The relationships and the beautiful morning sky brought to mind some lyrics from two songs.

We're just a million little gods causin' rain storms
turnin' every good thing to
rust.

From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song that it sings
All exclaiming

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God

Now to just stop hurting each other so we don't miss the beauty we are surrounded by.....BEAUTIFUL....both people and everything else He has created.

Beautiful pics. I especially love that bottom one with the trees. The colours are truly beautiful.

Hey, your moon looks a lot like the one we've got here! My gaze was drawn to her a few times tonight, sitting up there full, sister moon :)

Isn't that another amazing thing Sue? We are on opposite sides of this spinning ball and some of the sights are very similar. I no longer see the moon...I passed it onto you to enjoy.

That's very kind of you! Thank you :)

I no longer see it either. I'm off checking my eyelids for holes :)
