I've just recently started walking again and even though I have to
argue with myself to get me out the door... I'm always happy I went!
For now... I've been walking 3 laps at the local grade school track...
not exciting or inspiring... at least not at first glance...
...but when you look a little closer... there's beauty galore all around!
Look at the incredible collection of God's handiwork that I came home with!
I absolutely LOVE pattern and texture in nature...
and this pine cone is such a great example!
And just look at the intricate detail in a single feather! I am in awe.
Not sure what kind of cone this is... but I love the unique shape of the scales!
What I loved about this ivy leaf was not just the exquisite veining but also
the fresh spring green color... a sure sign of new life and a new season!
And isn't this little cedar sprig remarkable with its graduated color palette,
repeat pattern and the fantastic texture it creates? I only wish my big camera
lens was working so I could have captured and even better close up
So I end my day, praising God for His awesome creativity... and thankful that
He has created us as part of it!
Oh my sweet friends... if you haven't taken a moment lately to delight in the
intricate details of God's creation... do it today! Whether you go for a walk
with your eyes open or take time to examine a house plant or your favorite
pet up close... let God bring a smile to your heart as you delight in Him and
in His handiwork... and give Him praise!
Love you...
Karla
