The earth is filled with the Lord's glory. Habakkuk 2:14

We recently took a vacation to Bushkill Falls, Pennsylvania. WOW. On the heels of losing our mother in law, we NEEDED to just get away and do nothing at all. This location is not far from our home..only about an hour and a half, so it was a perfect get-a-away.

I'm not usually a "woodsy" person. Trust me, every time a tree rustles, I jump. Yeah how weird is that LOL. I can be in a busy city that is ridden with crime and feel right at home. But put me out in the woods and my mind begins playing tricks on me. BIG time. I hear the "Jason" music (from a

dumb horror movie) playing in my mind and I stand guard just to find a squirrel moving around. What nonsense the mind conjures up!

There is something about nature that soothes the soul. Nature speaks to my heart. The Lord created the earth that we live in! There are days (more than I want to admit) where I just don't "hear" from God or "feel" God's Presence, but then I walk outside, and lo and behold, there is the sun shining in all of its glory---reflecting God's handiwork. What a smile it puts on my face and my heart !!

Take a moment to reflect on the Lord's artwork today. Notice the flowers, see the green trees, and smell the freshness of the summer day. If your day is going bad, perhaps this may bring the touch you need to encourage your soul that if there is such beauty here on earth, imagine our FINAL destination--HEAVEN. :-)

God bless and enjoy the photos. Leave a comment if you would like to. I would love to hear

from you!

Love,
