This past weekend,

it snowed and snowed,

and froze...

those beautiful snowflakes,

so intricate and lovely...

each one...

covering the branches and making them bow low

over the frozen earth...

everything in a state of rest and trusting...

in a place of 'allowing',

and of hope...

of knowing that this is just a season...

and even though it may be cold

and harsh and seemingly unending...

it has beauty

it is...

goodness,

life-waiting,

it is beauty.

West

Sometimes you may have a dream...

a prayer...

that's been with you for what seems like forever...

(view from the car)

long carried hopes...

long awaited prayers...

(first day out West!!! ID)

in the expanse of the LORD'S time and plan,

they have not been too late,

nor have they been

unanswered...

(view of the mountains, that seem to be everywhere!)

His understanding and wisdom is unsearchable...

His faithfulness unending...

(View from Oregon Trail)

In every season of life,

whether in waiting...

(Oregon Trail)

or in answered hopes...

dwell with Him and feed on His faithfulness,

because...

He is Good.

(Favorite view of mine)

"Trust in the Lord, and do good;

dwell in the land,

and feed

on His faithfulness." Ps. 37:3
