Splashes of Beauty: Captured This Week

Join me on my continuing journey of responding to the Father's invitation to keep our eyes open for beauty all around us... for moments that might, on the surface, appear to be "mundane," in which the Lord captures our hearts and our attention with these "splashes of beauty...."

...to turn our heart back toward Him in worship in these moments as He whispers His love to our heart.

My plan is to post these moments each Sunday in pictures from the previous week....inviting you to join me in this exercise of keeping our eyes open for beauty...and together cultivating gratitude in our own hearts.... a greater awareness of His love mediated to us through His perfect gifts.


This Week's Splashes of Beauty...






So thankful for almost 2 whole days of beautiful, glorious RAIN here in Kansas City......
Rain...after the longest, hottest drought I can remember. The earth (and I) breathe sighs of relief...and praise God
for the beginning of September... never been
so thankful to see Autumn on its way.  
























Your love, Lord, reaches to the heavens,
    your faithfulness to the skies.


 Your righteousness is like the highest mountains,
    your justice like the great deep.


    You, Lord, preserve both people and animals.
 How priceless is your unfailing love, O God!

People take refuge in the shadow of your wings.

 They feast on the abundance of your house;
    you give them drink from your river of delights.


 For with you is the fountain of life;
    in your light we see light.


~Psalm 36:5-6

Hi there, friend! I'm honored and blessed when you share your heart, your thoughts, your feedback with me here. At the same time, I want my readers to feel free to read and process internally before the Lord... to not feel obligated to spit out immediate feedback.... so I am SO not upset or offended by non-commenting readers. Please be who you are - - internal AND external processors welcome here! :)


**If you have trouble leaving a comment, try going to where it says "comment as," or "Choose an Identity," changing the setting to "anonymous," and commenting as an anonymous user. Just make sure you leave your name in your comment if you'd like me to know who you are.**

Thanks so much for walking beside me a little ways here.
