A one-year anniversary is coming soon... the anniversary of when I "lost" my mom is next week. For a year, she hasn't been available by phone and she hasn't been living here on earth. There have been many losses to deal with and loss is difficult. I'm thankful that she is no longer in pain, no longer suffering here on earth and I'm thankful to know where she is now.... with Jesus.
Clouds are pretty amazing in their formations and quick changes. I enjoy seeing them and I can't help but give God glory for the evidence of His creativity when I see clouds and sunrises or sunsets.
There is only one God and He has created this beauty and sustains the world we live in and enjoy.
I don't know why looking at the sky draws my focus to God, but it does... and often I find myself reflecting on His goodness and I give Him praise.
This photo is a close up of the photo above... the same time period, and yet a closer view shows depth not seen in the first photo. I think that is like our view of life of earth too. We think we see it all, yet there are depths to it that we cannot begin to understand... yet.
I have learned to enjoy and appreciate a song called Well Done by the Afters and it reminds me of my mom. She had a hard life with health problems and more and I am thankful and comforted to imagine her hearing God say to her, "Well done, my faithful servant." You can listen to the song and see the video by clicking the name of the song below.
The clouds remind us to praise the Lord and I am thankful for the beautiful reminder. I know many of you have also suffered losses in the last year. May God meet your every need and encourage your heart... and give you peace, joy and hope as well as a close walk with Him. He is always good.
