Wesley United Methodist Church, Orange TX

Sometimes we get complacent and forget what a beautiful world we live in.  When the bad times that can happen in this world seem to be overwhelming us, we need to reach back into that camera of our mind and find a place that brings us peace and solitude.  A place where we can return to the person God calls us to be.  This picture brings me back to that kind of place.  This picture was taken in Sedona, Arizona by yours truly. God’s beautiful country and a very scenic one at that. Jane and I took a trip out west when I retired from Dupont and this was one of the most breathtaking places we visited.

Another area was the Grand Canyon. Man I could sit there and look for hours.  Such an amazing spot to go and visit. God is good and He gives us some spectacular scenery to see.  Another thought about spectacular is the ability to see.  Truly amazing is the God who has given us so much.   When the muck of this world seems about to cover you up, thinking about the creation as a whole,  puts lots of “mucky” things into perspective.   Have a great day and weekend.  Rest up and make time for worship.  God deserves the time we spend with Him.  Why do we cut Him short as much as possible when He has given us so much?
