...a perfect unconditional love
...sheer beauty wherever it may be found
...glimpses of God every day
...being rescued from hidden traps
...endless wonder over the clouds
...dipping into the serene
...stepping away and learning from
others
...inhaling the scent of lavender
...wind whipped waves calmed by prayer
...laughing myself silly
...watching the misty rainbow trail
...knowing God forgives even me
...the feeling of finger paint
...imitating the dance of lightning bugs
...the splashing joy of rivers
...unexpected light in darkness
...towels right out of the dryer
...creation of a pearl
...a quest completed
...fresh air to unclog my thinking
...cascading light from the heavens
...chattering chipmunks
...allowing pent up tears to fall
...dandelion bouquets from a child
...movin' n' groovin' to praise songs
...sharing the warmth and aroma of hot
cider
...encouraging words
...flicker of white-tailed deer
...Oriole chicks frolicking in the
birdbath
...exhilaration of the Northern Lights
...'photoengraving' ice on lakes
...sowing seeds of peace
...recognizing God in others
...a nurturing heart
...beauty in an aging hand
...a life worth cherishing
...a lifetime of saying, "Thank You."

GOD!
Bring a gift of laughter,
Sing yourselves into His presence.
Know this: GOD is God, and God, God.
He made us; we didn't make Him.
We're His people,, His well-tended sheep.
Enter with the password: "Thank You!"
Make yourselves at home, talking praise.
Thank Him. Worship Him.
For God is sheer beauty,
All-generous in love,
Loyal aways and ever.
Psalm 100, The Message
