Ready to Bloom

Hebrews 10:35-38
"Do not let this happy trust in the Lord die away, no matter what happens. Remember your reward! You need to keep on patiently doing God's will if you want Him to do for you all that He has promised. His coming will not be delayed much longer. And those whose faith has made them good in God's sight must live by faith, trusting Him in everything. Otherwise, if they shrink back, God will have no pleasure in them."
(The Living Bible)

A Small Light Purple Flower. . .

Psalms 40:1-3
"I waited patiently for God to help me; then He listened and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out from the bog and the mire, and set my feet on a hard, firm path and steadied me as I walked along. He has given me a new song to sing, of praises to our God. Now many will hear of the glorious things He did for me, and stand in awe before the Lord, and put their trust in Him."   (The Living Bible)

A Different Kind of Flower

Philippians 4:6-7
"Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything; tell God your needs, and don't forget to thank Him for His answers. If you do this, you will experience God's peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. His peace will keep your thoughts and your hearts quiet and at rest as you trust in Christ."  (The Living Bible)

From the back yard...

1 Peter 5:7
"Let Him have all your worries and cares, for He is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you." (The Leaving Bible)

A Beautiful Blue Bird....



"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude to me is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than success, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, gift, or skill. It will make or break a company...a church...a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past...we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10 percent what happens to me and 90 percent how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our attitudes. "(Dr. Charles Swindoll)

Black Bird Collecting Some Food...

"We who lived in the concentration camps can remember the men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread. They may have been few in number, but they offer sufficient proof that everything can be taken from a man but one thing:
The last of his freedoms - to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way." 
(Viktor E. Frankl

A Bird Finding de Foods to bring Home to His/Her Puppies....

(Theodore Roosevel)

The Singer: Yellow Bik Bird

"Thinking will not overcome fear, but action will." 
(W. Clement Stone)

A Bird from behind... Shadows...

(Mark Twain)

A Beautiful Tree Stalk... Just Try to See the Beauty of It!!
