Hidden Beauty

 


God’s creativeness is just so amazing.

Here is one of His lessons in photos. 

All of these photos are of the SAME bird- a Black and White Jacobin Hummingbird. The 1st photo is of the plain bird that we have seen for centuries.

Centuries.


One day Christian Spencer was on a balcony in South America (where they live) with his camera.


Photo credit: Gary Kurtz

The remaining photos are of what he saw and was able to capture on film.

Rainbow refraction!


When the bird flew with the sun lighting up through its’ wings he became the most beautiful rainbow hummingbird.


No one had ever seen or known this before.

These are NOT photo/digital manipulated in any way.


Lesson: while we may see normal, drab, plain people on the outside, God knows the truth. He sees us as He created us - beautiful beyond understanding!  Look at others through God’s eyes and see the treasure that they truly are. Let His light shine through and what was once ugly and plain is now beautiful and unique.


You are beautiful and unique.

You are a treasure beyond belief.

God created only one of you!

What a Wonderful World


Welcome all

I could not find the artist for this super painting.
Do you know?


I see trees of green,


red roses too,


I see them bloom,
for me and you


And I think to myself
what a wonderful world.


I see skies of blue


and clouds of white


The bright blessed day,


the dark sacred night


And I think to myself
What a wonderful world.


The colors of the rainbow
so pretty in the sky


Are also on the faces
of people going by.


I see friends shaking hands


saying how do you do?


They’re really saying


I love you.


I hear babies crying


I watch them grow


They’ll learn much more
than I’ll ever know


And I think to myself
What a wonderful world.


Yes, I think to myself
What a wonderful world.


‘Til next time,

To preserve continuity, I have listed photo credits here.
Unfortunately the file where I had saved them all
has fallen in to the abyss of The Unknown.
After several hours of searching, here are the few I can credit.

Rose in hand: Art.com
Black outline earth & hand: Amaya’s Realm, Pinterest 

Do you know of any photos I can give proper credit to?
Please let me know!
I will try to save credits more carefully from now on.
Sorry.
Sincerely.

Blues and a Barn

Welcome
All kaleidoscopes by inkspired using KaleidoCam 

Today is a blue day.
Yesterday was rainy and overcast. An okay day.
I do crave my sunlight though.

This morning I woke up to a gray and cloudy sky.
Hmmmm.
Didn’t really want 2 of those days in a row.
Fortunately 
the sun is peeking out and hopefully deciding 
to stay out for awhile.


I love to read God’s promises from the Bible.
Sometimes I lose my path, my energy, my calm.
But God never does.
He is the same Today,
                       Tomorrow
                               and Forever.
What a comfort in this rapidly changing world.

I am refreshed only when I keep my eyes on Him.
Then it doesn’t matter if it is cloudy or sunny!

Found on a poster site, Pinterest

Let’s search for some sunny, happy things
to chase away those cloudy day blues...

What’s needed here is a cute animal,
or a baby something.


Yep!
A little lamb laughing just about cures the blues!

Let’s go to the farm and visit Farmer Joe.
There might be more sunny things there.
Who knows who we might meet?!


Hello there Andrea Alpaca!
Looks like you are still digesting something
 you ate last night.
Ok, ok, I’ll leave you in peace
as I have some cheering up to do.


Hey there Dan Donkey!
Anything going on today?
Uh....

thanks anyway.
(Guess I don’t speak ‘donkey’ very well.
Sure sounded like ‘Bee-eef Haul’...)

Some kind of commotion going on over there.

What do you know about that, Randy Rooster?
Oh.
You’ve said all you’re going to say this morning 
and mum’s the word until tomorrow?

Guess we’ll just have to keep walking over there.
Say, what’s happening Billy Bunny?
Ummmm, yo! Billy!
Billy?
Well, he certainly seemed in a hurry.
Looks like he left some fur on the vegetable 
garden fence too. Farmer Joe isn’t going to like that.



Hi Marlene Moo.
No, I don’t have time for a cup of milk right now.
No, I really can’t stay and exchange recipes with you either.
Oh, lemon cream crepes? With real whipped cream?
Sounds delish. We’ll have to chat next time. Bye!

That Marlene Moo, she just talks and talks
and talks and talks.
And it’s always about food!
Must have something to do with her 4 stomachs...

Quick! Go to the back of that shed!
Whew!
Sharon Sheep almost saw us!
So I am complaining about the weather,
and feeling blue
but that girl complains about everything!
Her pen is too dirty,
Her wool needs washing,
She wants to listen to music,
but not that kind of music...
Her grain tastes funny today,
She needs a manicure...
We would still be here 3 days from now
trying to get away from her complaining.

Seems we are getting closer to all the fuss -
There’s Gustav Goat!
Let’s ask him!

No Gustav, I did not bring my coat for you to eat.
Say, Gustav, do you know wh....
No Gustav, you may not nibble on my shoelaces.
Sigh. 
No Gustav, my hat goes on MY head, not yours.
Sorry Gustav, we really have to get going...
I’ll bring a snack next time for sure!
No Gustav, my pant leg is not yummy...
Gotta’ run now!


At last! A farm resident that seems normal!
Hello, Helen Hen, nice to see you again.

Farmer Joe did what?!!

Oh, Helen I am so sorry to hear about your eggs.
He took all of them?
Even the ones you hid in the grass?
That is so sad...
Well I need to scoot, I’m checking out the riot 
going on over at the barn.
Of course, I would never tell Farmer Joe where your
new eggs are hidden.



Well if it isn’t my old friend Llarnelle Llama!
How are you? I see you have a new hair stylist!
Looking pretty spiffy there, Llarnelle.
I think this look is a keeper for you.
Oh, sure, ramble on over to the girls,
I’ll catch up with you later.
(He is such a ladies llama!)



Hmmm....
Things are looking a bit more cheerful.
Oh look! There’s my friend Patty Pig!


How are you Patty?
Do you know what’s happening over at the barn?

A big box arrived?
What was in it?
Oh no, Patty, I would never accuse you of being nosy!
Of course I don’t think you are a gossip...
Forget I asked, okay?
It’s just nice to see you.
Okay, I’ll let you know next time I’m going to visit
and you can take a bath and clean up.

Whew!
Patty sure was touchy today...


Hi Doris Duck! Great to see you!


Hi Gary Goose!
Lookin’ gooood!

Thought I would say hi to Farmer Joe....
yes, he’s in the barn you say?



Wow!
Farmer Joe!
That is beautiful!

No wonder everyone’s making a big to-do!


Congratulations on your new John Deere!

‘Til next time -
(I have to go ride a new tractor now!)
