~A Time For Everything~

He has made everything beautiful in its time.

Ecclesiastes 3:11

{Via}

1 There is a time for everything,
    and a season for every activity under the heavens:

      2 a time to be born and a time to die,
        a time to plant and a time to uproot,

 3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
    a time to tear down and a time to build,

      4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
       a time to mourn and a time to dance,

{Via Tumblr}

       5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,

          a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,

6 a time to search and a time to give up,

    a time to keep and a time to throw away,

  7 a time to tear and a time to mend,
       a time to be silent and a time to speak,

    8  a time to love and a time to hate,

            a time for war and a time for peace.

~Flowers: Designed by God~

I am in awe as I have not seen such intricate designs. God is love.

God is beauty.

The Window To My Soul

"One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today." - Dale Carnegie

“When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.”- Kahlil Gibran

“It is wrong to think that love comes from long companionship and persevering courtship. Love is the offspring of spiritual affinity and unless that affinity is created in a moment, it will not be created for years or even generations.” -Kahlil Gibran

“When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.” - Rumi

“What you seek is seeking you.” 

― Rumi

“Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens.” - Kahlil Gibran

“Happiness is the settling of the soul into its most appropriate spot.” - Aristotle

"A desire fulfilled is sweet to the soul..."- Proverbs 13:19

Designer: God

"...Think about how the flowers of the field grow; they do not work or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed like one of these." - Matthew 6: 28-29

It will only take one of these flowers for me to see how great God is.....

how He lovingly designed each one.......

and put together it's delicate parts......

in different shapes.....

and painted some of them with vibrant colors.....

and others, the faintest and sweetest of hues......

For some, He made graceful ruffles.......

and to others, lovely accents that would shame diamonds around a lady's neck.

{And sometimes I wonder how many more of these designs does God have in His sketchbook}

"And if this is how God clothes the wild grass, which is here today and gone tomorrow, won't he clothed you even more...."- Matthew 6:30

{These photos are obviously not mine and have been obtained from various unlabeled sources in the web. But I would like to give credit to each very talented photographer who has captured God's designs in one of His simplest but awesome  creations- the flowers of the field.}
