God's Creative Pictures

I was driving through Wyoming, in what seemed the middle of nowhere, I happened upon a beautiful field of sunflowers and I thought to come upon something so beautiful and yet, so unexpected! My sister has sunflowers in her 'English Garden'. She told me that the birds eat the seeds, they then drop them, and you don't know where they've dropped them until the next year when an unexpected sunflower grows in an unexpected spot! 

Since hearing her say that, I've often wondered how many of us drop 'seeds' that get planted, and although we may not get to see the fruits of the planting, someone else will hopefully get to enjoy one of 'God's creations' because of our willingness to plant a seed.



This is a picture I took in the Badlands - South Dakota! I wonder why they call it the Badlands. It's absolutely breathtaking to see all the diverse colors in these rocks that create magnificent craters and amazing mountain peaks! God's creativity never ceases to amaze me. After all, just look at all the people around you. none of us look the same. And even identical twins have a different set of fingerprints, and other things that set them apart. And He keeps creating over and over and over again...much of it for our enjoyment. Makes me excited to get to heaven. I have a hard time believing that some of this creativity won't be a part of heaven - only that much better!
