The Beauty Around Us

Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.” And it was so. The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the third day. Genesis 1:11-13 

This hymn is one of my favorites: For the beauty of the earth, for the glory of the skies, For the love which from our birth over and around us lies, Lord of all, to thee we raise this our hymn of grateful praise.

These hardy hibiscus have been with me for 27 years. I moved them from my South Street home. Each year I get to enjoy them. These last two years they have been fantastic.

Prayer: Oh Lord, we thank you for the beauty you created. Amen
