Do you ever find the time to stop

Do you ever find the time to stop and smell the roses and look at the beauty around you.

June 22, 2024

Do you ever find the time to stop and smell the roses and look at the beauty around you. When was the last time you admired a sunrise or a sunset? When was the last time you watched the birds as they frolic here and there singing their songs? When was the last time you looked at the landscape around you and saw God’s beauty? Sometimes in the hustle and bustle of everyday life we forget to appreciate the beauty around us. Psalm 19:1 reads, “The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” Sometimes we lose sight of how incredibly wonderful and beautiful God’s creation is. Today, take time to appreciate the things around you. God Bless. Amen.
