I was rather inspired the other morning when I was out for a jog at a nearby park and saw these
funky little dead thing falling off the trees just waiting to be discovered by a creative mind!
Aren't they fun?
PLUS I have had this glass bowl sitting around that needed something to fill it! Now it sits
happily on my front room mantle. I just hope these things aren't infested with
bugs or something.
As a reminder of how wonderful nature is, read this!
Do you take time to discover each day how beautiful your life can be? How long has it been since
you watched the sun set - the departing rays kissing the clouds, trees, hill, and lowlands
goodnight, sometimes with tranquility, sometimes with exuberant bursts of color and form?
What of the wonder of a cloudless night when the Lord unveils the marvels of His heavens - the
twinkling stars, the moonlight rays - to ignite our imagination with His greatness and glory?
How captivating to watch a seed planted in fertile soil germinate, gather strength, and send forth
a tiny, seemingly insignificant sprout. Patiently it begins to grow and develop its own character,
led by the genetic code the Lord has provided to guide its development. With care it surely will
become what it is destined to be: a Lily crowned with grace and beauty, a fragrant spearmint
plant, a peach, an avocado, or a beautiful blossom with unique delicacy, hue and fragrance.
When last did you observe a tiny rosebud form? Each day it develops new and impressive
character with more promise of beauty until it becomes a majestic rose.
You are one of the noblest of God's creations. His intent is that your life be gloriously beautiful
regardless of your circumstance. As you are grateful and obedient, you can become all that God
intends you to be.

HA HA I was just thinking "wonder if those have some kind of nasty bug infestation and you brought them into your home and put them in one of your bowls? and then I read the next line...great sisters think alike. P.S. I really miss you!
I love the Quote. I use it often. In fact, we discussed it in my institute class last week.
Is your next post going to be on extermination? :)
I was out on a walk the other day and wanted to bring some home with me too...could figure out how to carry them though. I will have to go back with a bag or something. I love them too. I think you could spray them with some kind of scented oil if you want them to look cool and have a use too. I did that at Christmas with some pinecones and it was awesome to my nose.
