Such beauty in a dead leaf, right? I love the quote...it's so true. Somehow, throughout the night last night, I must have been thinking the same thing and was inspired...I'll be working on that post soon. Sometimes we have to get up close and personal to see the real beauty...like the intricate lacy designs in that leaf :)

So glad to be able to enlarge the image and see the amazing detail - like delicate filigree.

I want to tell you how much your little posts mean to me. I've been struggling with depression, and your posts always bring hope and renewed patience. I will wait upon the Lord.

As usual, it was a treat, from both the photo and the Word connection. Always am touched by your touching.
