Many of you know I live at the Jersey shore in a house overlooking the water.
Every morning I wake up facing and looking at the magnificent colors of the
sunrise.
Sometimes it is so beautiful that I run and get a camera to capture the moment
so I can look at it again on a dreary, gloomy day.
Many people are in awe of sunsets. I am too. But, I am here to tell you the
colors of the sun rising in the fall and in the winter are just as vibrant and
beautiful as any sunset. In fact, people I have sent photos to thought they were
photos of the sun setting.
I wonder how many people enjoy a sense of awe in their lives?
I look around me everyday and see so many people who hurry through their day,
never really seeing anything around them. What joys they are missing!
I thank God for these blessings and His wonderful daily surprises. I thank Him
for being able to see His artistry in full splendid colors. It puts a smile on
my face all day long.
The kids of today use the word "awesome" to describe something good that they
see or receive. I reserve the word "Awesome" for one thing…
God is awesome!
He is impressive, overwhelming, astonishing, amazing, breathtakingly wonderful!
Yes! I am in awe of Him and the blessings I receive on a daily basis.
