Thoughts...

Last Saturday I decided to take a few photos of the Fall trees
around the house. I picked them up at lunch today and looked
at them while eating my Hotpocket...The first photo reminded
me of how sad I was at first because the leaves didn't have
much color and they just looked dead. Then God took my
thoughts on a bit of a journey....thought I would share....

The leaves all looked dull and dead. However, if you keep moving
and looking then you'll find an angle...

A place where the sun is in just the right spot that...

At that particular place and moment the leaves glow with splendor just
like the One that created them....



He reminded me if I keep moving and looking through His view of things...
His angle is from above so totally different than the view we see. If we
just keep looking we'll soon see as the Son shines through...


The deadness of life will disappear and the Splendor of the One
who created us will shine through....



He makes everything glow with life....eternal life.

Yes...He makes all things new...I loved the idea of seeing the leaves from above...seeing things from God's perspective. Blessings to you sister.

Beautiful perspective. You have quite an eye for God's truth exhibited in nature.

That's my girl!
Keep seeing this world through His eyes! We are doing this thing....he is working..and our enemy does not like that.
I love the perspective here...but then who would not love something coming from God above. He talks to me so often through the things He has created...it is pretty awesome.
I have had a post on leaves that I have wanted to do...maybe I will start writing it.
