Beholding Glory ~








does the wonder
of it all
ever just take
your breath away
! ! !
We may ignore,
but we can't evade
the presence of God.
The world is crowded with Him.
He walks everywhere incognito.
C.S. Lewis

I will forever think of my dad when I see a monarch butterfly. Your clicks don't disappoint! The detail and vivid color just brings nature to life before my eyes. What a blessing you are to me Susan, and so many others I think too!

Ms. Becky said...

yes, the monarchs are on the move, and you've captured them so beautifully. zinnias must be one of their favorite flowers. happy day to you Susan.

Incognito... and sometimes, not.

We released 53 monarchs at my cousin's funeral last Thursday. She was 53 years old... such a sad day brightened by the promise of resurrection through the beautiful symbol of a monarch.

We haven't had power for a while (Irene's handprint), so I don't know if your profile picture is new, but it's new to me today--so soft and lovely! Butterflies are always welcome in my world and these flowers are gorgeous. Your message is timely for me today...The presence of God...I needed that. Thank you!
