Time out!

No doubt that we all have a lot going on. The world just seems so chaotic at times. The economy, the election, jobs, kids, it can be overwhelming. Jesus told us to cast all of our cares upon Him. So take some time and do just that, give your cares to Him. Relax, look around, see what God is capable of.



I have a fondness for all the beauty that is around us in nature. It is amazing what God has created. No matter how bleak your surroundings may appear, if you look close, you will see God's handiwork.














Common, ordinary items, such as this flowering vine are really spectacular to look at if you just take the time to look.

















This plant was given to my sister
after her husband passed away.
Even when sad things happen,
God reminds us that he is still there.
He said he takes care of the grasses
and flowers of the fields, and we are
more precious than they are.











A trip to a botanical garden yielded this shot.












I'm not sure what this is, it was growing in my son's yard! Pretty interesting.
