Magnolia 2013

The magnolia tree that borders our property and our neighbors is in full bloom.  I love this tree for many reasons, but one of the things about it is that it reminds me of the South.  It's a beautiful way to start the day to look outside at it.  The blooms also smell nice, which is a bonus.  To see beauty like this is to escape the troubles of our world.  Enjoy a look at our magnolia this year.  Grateful for the beauty of these & for God's promises!

I'm taking a break from blogging tomorrow & next week.  My folks are visiting next week & frankly, I need a recharge.  Thanks for reading & enjoy your week :)


⁴ Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.
~2 Peter 1:4
