I've been overwhelmed a bit lately with some things that are sad, things that are ugly. These things most often plague me in the early morning and the late evening - when my hands are still and my mind quiet.
This morning's sunrise was magnificent. I grabbed the camera and ran out to try and catch the moment. As I stood marveling over the beauty, God spoke encouragement to my heart. I was reminded of God's faithfulness in the fact that the sun continues to rise at God's command every morning - even amidst the hurt that sometimes overwhelms me. I was also reminded that though circumstances change, He never does. God always was, is, and will be. I'm so glad that this place of earth is just temporary for me - one day I will be Home and away from pain. Until then, I can trust that my unchanging God has all things in hand, including my heart. May you be encouraged in those thoughts today as well -

Beautiful, beautiful picture and thoughts -- thank you for sharing both...they've made my Monday :)
Beautiful and Amen! Sometimes I get like that too and then our wonderful Father blesses me with a sign from him as he did you. Have a blessed day.
I wish I could just pop over and give you a great big hug-so take my email one. What a beautiful sky-how blessed that the Lord encouraged you with it. He is so good to us!
Be blessed this day.
Hugs, Noreen
Thank you, ladies. Your comments have warmed my heart.
Such a lovely picture. Sunrises have a way of reminding me of the same things you talked about. And that each day is new and ready for us to leave an imprint on.
