If you read my last blog, you know that I spent a weekend on the mountain with Jesus and the garden. The whole time I couldn't help but pick flowers and sit in wonder at the beauty He has surrounded us with. Here are the words He gave me to express the things I heard&saw. 

I remember the joy of seeing you.

And picking you.

 

Colors of the sun,

Reflecting the son.

 

I couldn't help but stop and smell the roses

Wondered if I could capture this moment forever

 

Suddenly this feeling was washing over me

Back to the garden.

 

Restoration. 

Stewardship. 

 

A beautiful revelation of your goodness

I could see the plans coming in place


Your original goodness

Overflowing in life around me.

 

Who knew heaven could meet earth

In such a place as this.

 

So I stole away to my journal

Piling in the fragrance and beauty all on one page

 

Hoping I'd remember this moment,

For all eternity.
