A quote....

Ralph Waldo Emerson is not an unfamiliar name to us.  I have made a slight adaptation to this following quote, attributed to him.

"Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything that is beautiful, for beauty is God's handwriting - a wayside sacrament.  Welcome it in every face, in every sky, in every flower, and thank God for it as a cup of  blessing."

Have a blessed Sunday!

Thank  you for reading.  I appreciate your comments.

  2. Nellie, It kind of reminds me of something my mom said..there's good and bad in all of us, sometimes we have to look a bit harder for the good, but it is there. God is an artist like no other. xo, Susie

  5. Sister, we were blessed with a mother who always could find something good in anyone, and I wish I had more of that quality. I can do it with nature, but with people it's a bit more challenging at times! Thank you for this, and have a wonderful day! :-)
