Today we are joining Lorraine's Think on These Things on her blog With a Grateful Prayer and a Thankful Heart.
In the spring and summertime, when everything is green and lush, it's absolutely delightful to get outside and enjoy the surroundings.
The countryside is particularly appealing.
Fields of sweeping green with almost no end; the limitless sky and rolling clouds; leafy pathways and undiscovered roads all make a person so grateful to be alive.
Do you ever wonder what God was thinking when He created our world?
It's so filled with amazing things from the tiniest bug to the wrinkly skin of a huge elephant thundering across a plain.
From a blade of grass to a grove of pine trees the tops of which seem to touch the heavens, He created it all for us, His precious children.
The colors of nature, too, soothe our spirits. The blues, greens, oranges, pinks, purples, reds, whites, and yellows of flowers in every shape and size never cease to amaze.
The sounds of birds and trickling water in a stream also soothe.
A whole world is right there, at our fingertips, for our pure enjoyment.
Once you sit underneath a canopy of leaves, with dappled sunlight streaming down, you'll want to go outside often just to think, or not.
TELL ABOUT SOMETHING SPECIAL IN NATURE YOU'VE SEEN TODAY.
