I’ve decided to share some images with you. I will warn you ahead of time that I am in no way a photographer. But, these pictures were taken at moments when God has gently turned my gaze upward and outward. Showing me His masterpieces. Refocusing me on the One that made them. So, in thanksgiving for these beautiful gifts, I’m going to share them with you in the hopes that you may also see the beauty in the every day things we so often miss.

Disclaimer:These pictures were taken with my cheap smart phone and cropped to take out things like toys, bikes, hoses, and discarded shirts. Though there is beauty in a yard full of evidence of childhood play, I just kind of feel like the sheer volume of it might distract from the aesthetic beauty.
