Spires

Photo by Gary Fultz on Unsplash

cloaked with pure white snow

the balsam trees seem to know

‘just keep pointing up’


For this is what the Lord says–he who created the heavens, he is God; he who fashioned and made the earth, he founded it; he did not create it to be empty, but formed it to be inhabited–he says: “I am the Lord and there is no other.”

Isaiah 45:18 (NIV)

Holding On

The apples, amazed

by an early autumn snow

still “hanging in there”


It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

1 Corinthians 13:7-8a (NIV)

leave-taking


a leafless goodbye

to the blazing quilted sky

“I’m still here,” says God.


And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age

Jesus – Matthew 28:20b (NIV)

Peace Rising


many fallen lives

consistently on the rise

through the Prince of Peace


Therefore, being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ

Romans 5:1 (NIV)

The photo today is by Gary Fultz Please follow the link and check out his amazing nature photographs. See his description of this unique shot below.


Frigid temperatures and ice crystals in the air create rainbows on each side of the sun called sun dogs. An artistic snow scape on a lake from heavily packed snow. Drifts and frozen ripples and waves are a wonder to behold, if one does not mind frosty eyelashes and cold biting through the warmest parka.

Born Again

Photo by Betty Chambers from Chambers on the Road.

out of death comes life

such a paradox, it seems

to be born again


I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born from above.

Autumn Rains


Like the autumn rains

on the thirsty, thirsty plains

hope springs eternal


and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s Love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.

Autumn Observations


with hummingbirds gone

and no trees filled with bird song

almost leafless rain.


There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under heaven.

Ecclesiastes 3:1 (NIV)
