The sky over the Mountains of Connemara and the lake called Pol A Cappel
Well I seem to have done it again and mixed up my days. Since I posted Sunday’s post (Seven Word Sunday) on Saturday, I figured it really wouldn’t hurt anything if I posted Friday’s post on Sunday. Ahh there we go the balance has been restored.
This incredible rainbow appeared over our town hall last night after the day’s torrential rains.
It reminded me of this verse in the Bible.
When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.” Luke 21:28
We have ebola. We have the entero virus. We have war all over the world. We have weapons of mass destruction being discovered where people assured us there were none. We have fear and anger and well the list just goes on forever it seems. But we also have the promises of God and the good news of the gospel. I can still sing “Jesus Loves Me” and “This World Is Not My Home” and those two things are the truth unshakeable.
Ebola can come. War can come. People can hate me, curse me and hurt me but in the end all these troubles will pass away and I will stand in the garden again with my Jesus and sing! And so can anyone who comes to the cross and receives the grace of the One True Messiah of mankind! Now that is good news that no amount of bad news can undo!

This post was made for Skywatch Fridays

Hey this week Friday actually comes on Friday! For those of you who have been following me you know this has been something aof a problem for me this summer.
This is the parking lot of our church. The photo was taken at sunrise just before our last artist’s gathering in August. Below are some photos of our group art project from that day. The splatter paintings will be displayed at the Toy Town Fall Fest, the C.cada fall art show and at the Cloverton concert in November for which they were made.
It seems in my world Friday shall ever come on Saturday!
Once again I am posting my Skywatch Friday on Saturday. But this week it is not because I am running behind but because it is expedient. I am actually writing at 2 A.M. on Wednesday morning getting all my posts for next week done since I am going to be away at Special Touch Ministry’s New England Getaway leading worship. I don’t imagine I will have a whole lot of time to post from the Berkshires. I will follow up on comments when I return. 🙂

“Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer’s day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time.”
― John Lubbock, The Use Of Life
The sky is everywhere, it begins at your feet.”
