As we drove through the Green Mountain National Forest on July 9, I snapped photos sometimes as fast as I could. Later, when I uploaded them, I discovered that I had taken a photo of a waterfall I had only barely even seen.
Sometimes life is this way. There is a place of refreshing and rest, but we pass it by hardly seeing. Today, I hope that we all find the time to reflect, to pray, to listen for God's voice. It'll be refreshing!
ETA: I added Alan Jackson's version of "In the Garden" to my playlist, if you'd like to listen.
I have that CD of Alan Jackson and I love it. It's one of my favorites. Have a nice Sunday.

It's funny sometimes how we don't see what's right in front of us...the camera captures it all. Have a wonderful Sunday!
ReplyDeleteI love waterfalls.
ReplyDeleteThat is another reason why I like to walk each morning. I see so many wonders that God as given us that I would have never seen but for that walk.
That's happened to me many times. A lot of the photos on my photoblog site are "drive-bys". I'm always amazed at the hidden treasures I find when I upload the photos.
ReplyDeleteBTW, isn't that your "hit list"?

My Sunday has been just as simple as I said it was going to be, and I love it. I hope yours is just as beautiful, Vee.
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday Vee...love the photo.

Great Sunday, full of rest and relaxation here in Montanee!! We are trying to stop and smell the roses along our new adventure,
ReplyDeleteGood advise Vee...be blessed this day!!
Thank you for that gentle and beautiful (and much-needed) reminder.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

So beautiful Vee. I know what you are saying. Many times (especially when photographing an event) I miss the forest for the trees. I love waterfalls...not huge ones but the mountain ones. They are so awesome to see and to hear. They lull me into calm. I love photography but many times what Im busy downloading in the camera I miss downloading in my soul. Im working hard to slow down and smell the roses....see the waterfalls. Awesome photo.

Ah the Sabbath, what a wonderful reminder Vee :). The waterfall is pretty amazing, it looks like you were in a moving vehicle, I would have made George pull over. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Sonday!
Aren't waterfalls peacefull?
ReplyDeleteSo true how sometimes the camera will capture things our eye doesn't see.
Hope you had a wonderful Sunday!
I love the picture of the waterfalls. Aren't cameras wonderful things? They can help us remember things that slip away from our mind. We all have so much information going on that saving it all is impossible. You seem to always find so much beauty. I hope you have a great week.
ReplyDeleteOh I love coming home and looking at my pictures. I almost want to do this first which is so funny since I've just seen where I've been. I've had a surprise or two on my camera too. What fun.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty picture. So neat that you snapped it as you went passed. I think it would make a nice framed print to have as a keepsake.
ReplyDeleteLovely and thoughful post and so true.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your meme but will not take it up as I have so many of those kind of things pending.
Thanks for wedding photo. You are truly blessed.
Thanks for all your continuing encouraging comments too.
