Finding Peace in Nature

Lately, I have been taking a lot of photos and spending a lot of time in nature.  I feel very close to God when I'm around so many of His creations, like trees and birds.  Many times I'm in a very quiet and peaceful place, where the only sounds I hear are birds or a squirrel chattering in the distance.  These are the times that I can pray or meditate on something that might be on my mind.  These are special times that I am so thankful for and can count my many blessings.

If you don't feel peace or joy in your life, you are missing out on something wonderful.  Maybe there are some changes you need to make.  Why not find your quiet place and take time to draw closer to God.  Pray.  Pick up your Bible and delve into the New Testament scriptures.  Study about what Christ did for you.  If you truly know what He did for you when He died on the cross for all of our sins, why wouldn't you want to be baptized for the remission of your sins.  The joy I feel from having all my sins blotted out, that weight that He took away and that love He shows...that is worth living for Him:  I love you and I pray that you feel that love for your soul when you read this.

Please come back and see some of my photos and creative projects that I am working on and thanks again for visiting my blog.  Charis
