Welcome to my small spot in the universe.
Through pictures and a few words, I hope to communicate to others the blessings we receive, even in the smallest every day things around us.
God is good!

Peace

The name of this candle scent is Peace.
I don't burn candles much in the summer time,but the word "peace" called to me.
Peace is a comforting word in these troubled times.
Real peace comes from above...from the Creator.
Have a peaceful day!
Love,
Shirley

Dusk

A few views of the late evening sky.
Airplane and a tiny moon.
And a bigger moon.
There is a lot to see...when you look to the heavens!
Have a blessed day.
Love,
Shirley

Daisies


I always browse through the garden section when I go to our Walmart.
This pot of daisies caught my eye, and the thought came,,"I need that".
I love daisies...the potted ones , and the wild ones growing quietly beside the road.
They may seem a simple flower...but they have a message  to all..
Simple is beautiful.
Have a great day.
Love,
Shirley

The Butterfly

I watched him for a long time.
 Flitting here and there, and all around the yard, and the neighbor's yard.
He always came back to this yellow flower.
It must have really sweet nectar.
His little friend came along too.
It was a peaceful time,sitting watching the butterflies.
Love,
Shirley

Bluebirds

There are lots of bluebirds around here. I see them in the yard every day.
There are bluebird houses in the back yard, but I hadn't seen any activity around them.
Until this morning.
The bluebirds are flying around, and I assume building nests.
A welcome sight.
He is sitting on top of the backyard building.
Surveying his kingdom...and making plans for little blue babies!
Blessings...
Love,
Shirley

Count Your Blessings

I made these Blessing jars for my daughter and a friend.
Using old Ball canning jars.
Write daily blessings down on slips of paper and slip through the slot on the lid.
On a day when you are feeling "down"
open the jar and read them.
You will be amazed  at the goodness of God.
It does the soul good to count your blessings!
Have a Blessed day.
Love,
Shirley

Rain

We have been getting downpours every evening.
The flowers love it.
