Communion We walked into the woods today And found a quiet place to pray, Surrounded by the gifts that He Bestowed on us so generously. The grass and flowers, trees and sky. The birds and butterflies nearby. The warmth of sun, the touch of breeze, Fair Eden surely sheltered these. There was communion of a kind, Even those in church don't find. Perhaps because our Lord began To teach outdoors, wherever man Was occupied with daily chores. His words there opened gilded doors To where each man's salvation lay. He went before and led the way. No building made by man, though grand, Can top what's made by God's own hand! Betty Lou Hebert [This message has been edited by Trillium (08-20-2003 01:32 PM).] |

You are SO right! Every single day I am outside giving thanks for all that surrounds me, and this was a keeper! |

Indeed it's true. Being a Northwest boy, I know. Nicely done Trillium. Thanks.  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

Oh yes...so true it is. I have never felt closer to God than when I am surrounded by the beauty of His creation. Thank you for this one, Betty Lou...  "My friends are my estate." |

 (smiles) Oh Betty, this is so very true, sweet friend, He makes all the most beautiful creations and nothing man-made can ever come close to rivaling the pure design of God! (kiss on cheek) Through the sounds of the sparrows and the rustling of the trees may we seek solace, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Betty, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |
