Honor and majesty are before Him; Strength and beauty are in His sanctuary. Psalm 96:6
His creations are splendid, His settings soothing, His attention to detail beyond comparison…
Yet he tucks them away in little unseen crannies
and scatters them lavishly on untrodden hillsides
for only the mountain climber to notice.
when he chances to look down at his feet…
The ones with lesser glory He gives fragrance that fills the world with the scent of orange blossoms….
If this is how He ornaments His footstool, what must His residence be like?
One thing I have asked from the LORD, that I shall seek:
That I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life,
To behold the beauty of the LORD
And to meditate in His temple. Psalm 27:4
–LS
“And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands upon us” Ps.90:17
So cool to see the oregon grapes in flower. I remember sucking on them while walking on a trail if I got thirsty, but I've never seen it in flower.
Yes, I was quite 'taken' with the two tone blooms. Lovely!
