“The heavens declare the glory of God,   and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.
Day to day pours out speech,  and night to night reveals knowledge.
There is no speech, nor are there words,  whose voice is not heard.

Their voice goes out through all the earth,  and their words to the end of the world.”
                        ~ Psalm 19:1-4
 
I am so blessed to have an opportunity to live in such a beautiful country. As far as I’m concerned the view of the sunsets from my house are some of the best i have seen anywhere. It’s so true that God displays his glory in everything He created. To me, a sunset is like a painting God did that day to say I love you. Even the trees and plants here show God’s glory and something that struck my the other day was that when God created the earth, it was perfect, no sin had entered, and only when Adam and Eve sinned, did he add thistles and thorns to the land. So the beauty we see today is nothing in comparison to what God intended for us and I believe that when He makes all things new, we will again behold the fullness of the beauty He intended for us to enjoy.

  7. Good Morning or Afternoon Christine!
    I am glad to hear from you. I am also happy to hear that you are enjoying God’s smile to you and the feet that bring good news to another country. I pray for you as you are in that country that God would do mighty works in you and in the people you serve. Sorry I haven’t written in a while. We have been going through some trials with the house and Kenz goes in for her 2nd surgery on Nov 5. We are trying to keep our heads high and focusing on Jesus! He knows the way because he is the way! Thanks for all you do. I am struggling with out your help in my business. The deals nowadays are twice as hard and twice as long and don’t always come out positive. Thanks for the pictures, They are beautiful!!
    God’s Blessings to you

  10. Thanks for the beauty of the sunset. It is good to look to the heavens and see God working on His pallet. I started a poem once with upon the eternal sky of heaven, in which I put the back drop of suffering against it with Naomi during her prayer service.
    and Psalm 8 is a beautiful psalm also.

    Peace to you, Scott

  11. Hi there Christine!
    The beautiful pictures make me think of the verse that says he will rejoice over us with singing. If the night speaks knowledge and the day speaks of him then this must surely be him singing! I have you on my mind often and so you are lifted up to Him with each thought of you. I so look forward to all your corrospondence to hear what God is doing in your part of the world. I know you will “abide” and bear much fruit. consider yourself hugged and kissed.

  13. Dear Christine,
    Wow. What stirring color and design in the sky shots!
    Great insight into the future, when all creation is restored.
    Blessings on you.
    Here, with the challenging election, ironically, I’m feeling more and more, not to worry: God is in control.
    May He have His hand on us all. Love in Christ, Lisa

  14. Christine, I pray for you and your work for the Lord you are doing. I’m so happy you were able to see GOD’S art show. Isn’t He just awesome? Just beautiful sunsets. May God always give you a glimpse of His glory each day. Be well and God bless you.
    In Christ ,
