Nature

There is so much beauty in life,
Beauty in the human soul,
Beauty in the heart and in the mind
Of the good man and woman.
There is beauty in nature,
Beauty in the sky and in the clouds,
In the mountains and in the sea.
There is beauty in the creative work of man,
Beauty in true friendship.
And immeasurable beauty in love.
All God's blessings
To delight us in this world.

The visiting teaching message this month is on beauty, the beauty of this great Earth.  It's amazing to behold this earth.  Fall my favorite, as it is many people's.  It is unreal how beautiful it is in Pullman right now.  We talk about it at work basically everyday.  The leaves are turning from green to yellow and red.  The air is crisp but the sun is shining!  Coat and boots weather.  Yes!  When I was on my run this morning a single leaf floated down and landed on my hand.  It was a simple reminder to me that God is watching me.  Not just the whole world, but ME.  He knows my pains, my happiness, my dreams.  And he wants the best for me at all times.  I am grateful for everything that Heavenly Father placed on this Earth for me to enjoy.  If only Glen and I could have a day off together to take pictures.  Someday I look forward to having regular days off together so we can do things like take pictures together in a beautiful location.  At least we are planning a date tonight when he gets off work.
