On a rainy Saturday morning, it seemed appropriate to share these pictures I received recently, from my photographer uncle.  He and his wife are visiting their newly married daughter and son-in-law in the beautiful state of Colorado.  The pictures were too spectacular to just store in my computer, so I decided to share some of them with you, if you have time today.

"Dear Lord, grant me the grace of wonder.  Surprise me, amaze me, awe me in every crevice of Your universe...Each day enrapture me with Your marvelous things without number.  I do not ask to see the reason for it all; I ask only to share the wonder of it all."     ~Abraham Joshua Heschel

In light of all the daily life headlines and news bulletins, I find this captured natural beauty so refreshing.  What about you?

"Loving Creator, help me reawaken my childlike sense of wonder at the delights of Your world!"  ~Marilyn Morgan Helleberg

"Today is unique!  It has never occured before, and it will never be repeated.  At midnight it will end, quietly, suddenly, totally.  Forever.  But the hours between now and then are opportunities with eternal possibilities."    ~Charles R. Swindoll

Thank you dear uncle!  Enjoy your time in that exquisitely beautiful state! 
Thank you blogging friends for stopping by my little corner of the world.  Enjoy the gift of today!
