God makes trees as individual as He does people. No two trees are the same.
Look up close at their details.
The shadows created by the Light, are like the beauty that we leave on the world through Him.
This to me is the landscape of humanity.
When I look at this scene, I reflect about all the people behind those windows, and all the people who built these buildings over the years.
Yes, it all looks perfect on the outside, but it’s what’s inside that counts and makes all the difference. Like when I create a picture, I’m critical but mindful that perfection can lead to procrastination.
How about you?
What really is important, I think, is to be mindful and reflect that what we create will still be around after we are dead and gone. So, remember that what goes on inside of us is the here and now, and this we must keep in perspective.
Enjoy your day.
All of us are different, yet together.
What struck me about this view of Chicago architecture was the Illumination from the morning sunlight. Then what came into view is how these structures are from decades apart of each other.
Though each of these are different, they blend together with such beauty, especially when enveloped by the sun and shadows.
Much as in life, and in living our faith, all of us are different, yet together we can do great things that create beauty in this world… such as these buildings… especially when enveloped in faith in this love of the Lord Jesus.
In a similar way, as beauty from the morning light brings promise to prepare for the coming of the new day ahead, so too must we live our faith looking for signs in preparation for the beauty of the coming of the Lord.
Enjoy your day.
Our ways are not His ways …
Our thoughts go in many directions like the leaves from these plants. Yet, God’s thoughts are above our thoughts.
I, too, fall into the (dangerous) trap of finding solutions for my problems without God.
Yet when I come to the end of my rope, and finally turn to God, the situation comes out way better than I could ever do myself.
When will I ever learn. I’m not God and never will be.
