Word prompt--VISION
Five minutes to free write about it

Vision is one of the gifts I give thanks for every morning. Along with the gifts of a new day, and of being able to hear and walk as well as see. Blessings I often take for granted.
I miss those days, and know I need to stop making excuses and just do it. It's time to once again go out "beholding" the masterpieces God gave me my vision to enjoy.
Those who live at the ends of the earth stand
in awe of your wonders. From where the sun
rises to where it sets, you inspire shouts of
joy. -- (Psalm65:8)
Behold ye now the masterpieces
ReplyDeleteGod has placed for you.
Get ye on your feetses
and do what you must do.
Pick ye up a camera
such as you may own;
millennial or grandma,
you might also use your phone
to preserve a pixelated
vision of the beauty
that God has in love created
not from a sense of duty,
but to do His holy part
to bring a smile unto your heart.
Love this.
DeleteThanks, Andrew.

I'm so glad you got the camera out to capture the beauty of those azaleas. You have an eye for it, so get out there with the camera. I always have a camera with me - even today I took pictures of coot parents with the tiniest little babies on the lake. Praise God for vision and for cameras. FMF #13

ReplyDeleteYour azaleas remind me of the ones my grandfather planted in their back yard - so beautiful. They make me miss home. I'm glad you got out for photos - when I take the time to go for a photo shoot with God, He fills my heart - and camera! Shalom! ~ Maryleigh
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful flowers. Thank you for sharing, Sandra. I too need to revive my practice of walking about and taking photographs.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers! The simple joy of vision is a blessing we shouldn't take for granted. I hope I never do!
