"Autumn Time is here, happiness and cheer...."

Guess what time it is? No, really. Guess. Well, I'll just tell you anyway! It's fall! We got our first cold snap on my birthday! I'm thinking of it as a birthday present from God. Isn't He sweet. We normally don't get fall colors on the trees until the end of November, but this time we got it late October! A cold front has just come through, so right now the highs are in the 70's, and tonight it's going to be 45 degrees! The new weather has made everyone happier since it came. I know that it is a blessing from God, and that He is the only one we should thank. Speaking of thanking, isn't Thanksgiving coming up?

You Can Always Turn to God

                                                                                        
Psalm 18:2 The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; My God, my rock, in whom I will take refuge; My shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower.
     This is a verse that I saw on my Psalm for the Day gadget on my blog. It reminded me of how we can always go to God when we are fearful, sad, angry, or even happy and want to thank Him. He will never leave, never disappear, never stop loving us, and never turn His back on us. He is one amazing, praiseworthy, awesome, powerful, and loving God.
      Just wanted to share that.

Ocean

The big blue.

Sun rises.

Good morning, ocean.

Fog covers the water like a blanket.

Small, lapping waves wet the shore.

A light breeze starts to blow.

Sound of calling seagulls.

Wind makes waves a little bigger.

Good afternoon, ocean.

Millions of creatures, big and small

Living just beneath the surface.

Tiny, silvery minnows dwell in shallow water.

Enormous sharks abide in the depths.

Cool off your feet in the icy water.

Feel squishy, cold sand through your toes.

Good evening, ocean.

Sunlight dances upon the water.

Everything in sight has a golden glow.

Step out of the ocean world.

Enjoy the beauties that God has created.

Including the big blue.

Goodnight, ocean.
