Grace ~

may
you find
light and grace
amongst the
hard and dark
places
the solitary places
of life
: : :
faith
is a living
daring confidence
in God's grace
so sure and certain
that a man could stake
his life on it
a thousand times
Martin Luther

I love this quote! Your beautiful pictures look like maybe fall grass, or maybe something else...

I love those words of Martin Luther's. Your photos are beautiful also.

Beautiful images, Susan! Enduring as the breezes sweep past... so like our faith that is sometimes fragile, tenuous, but bolstered by God's grace and mercy.

What would we do without the grace of God!

Joan Elizabeth said...

Yes I like that quote ... I find grace a complicated word, even though it isn't. Your post today reminds me of the simplicity of it.

I'm wondering if nature just doesn't stop and pose for you. Beautiful.

Louise Gallagher said...

I too wonder as Glynn does -- or is it that your eyes never quit seeing the beauty in everything and nature keeps delivering?

Beautiful.

and the heart to cherish it!
I love that about you:)
And these photos
are achingly beautiful!
