Through the Lens of Worship - Week 3

Keeping it simple this week.  I was going to share a different experience but as I was looking for the scripture I was thinking of I ran across a section in Psalm 103 that reminds us to have an eternal perspective.  God is faithful and loves us SO much!  It's so difficult to comprehend.  I find peace and encouragement in these words.  With the photo I'm sharing, this makes more sense.  Blossums don't seem to last long once they've bloomed.  They're delicate and the slightest breeze can make a tree bare again. 

For as the heavens are high above the earth,
So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him;
As far as the east is from the west,
so far has He removed our transgressions from us.
As a father  pities his hildren,
So the Lord pities those who fear Him.
For He knows our frame;
He remembers that we are dust.


As for man, his days are like grass;
As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.
For the wind passes over it, and it is gone.
And its place remembers it no more.
But the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting
On those who fear Him,
And His righteousness to children's children,
To such as keep His covenant,
And to those who remember His commandments to do them.
Psalm 103: 11-18

  2. I love Psalm 103. And I love your picture. We wanted to get pictures of the kids in a blossoming orchard and just about when the orchard was ready we had that huge rain storm. I seriously thought that the blossoms might be mostly gone - lucky for us they weren't. But you are right - oh so delicate and only here for a fleeting moment each year.
