Enjoying God’s beautiful world with my senses

God made this world.

More than that, He made it beautiful.  Not just functional, but beautiful.  Not just nice, but exceedingly and extravagantly wonderful.









What wonderful things for our eyes to see!! I was reminded of the gift of sight when I was out exploring Manly on a gorgeous sunny day and saw 3 vision-impaired people.

And yet He bestows more on us; wonderful things to eat and drink too!






And then there are the other senses: touch, hearing, smell.  What a bounty of delights God has made for us!

As a loving Father, God “causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous” (Jesus in Matthew 5:45).

What love!




What in God's beautiful world has made you smile lately?

  1. sorry that the previous post isn't quite a feast for the senses due to formatting limitations :-(

    I'd already messed around enough to get the photos in there...

    Time to enjoy the gift of sleep :-)
