Looking out my back door

We have had a week of rain. It is turning things green again after a long dry summer. 

Yesterday I was watching the sun over the coast range behind the shop. I have always thought the layering of colors by distance was pretty amazing. 

The trees by the river at the end of our property are almost black. The trees on the ridge by Muddy Valley are dark grey. The hills behind Muddy Valley are a slightly lighter shade and the ridge line behind them is in a stark contrast to the clouds. Somewhere past that ridge is the Pacific Ocean.

 


But then I pulled back the camera and we see what I see every day. Lots of Junk!

  1. This sounds like a good place for a sermon about keeping our eye on God and moving forward. It would also allow for leaving our sin behind. How I would work that with not tripping over the junk, I don't know.

    Keep in mind that one man's junk is another man's treasure. Now all you need to do is find that man.

    Grace and peace,

  2. Or a sermon on concentrating on the beauty of the situation and not being distracted by all the negativity around you
