For the beauty of the earth, for the beauty of the skies, for the love which from our birth over and around us lie, Lord our God to thee we raise, this our grateful hymn of praise.

I am thankful for the heart that God has given me, the contentment knowing him has brought me; it has taught me to enjoy all of life’s simple pleasures, it could be a something as simple as picking a gardenia for my daughter, seeing the new mango blossoms, just watching the group of white ibis on my lawn as they search for food, and I just want to share with you this photo and encourage you, to enjoy the simple things of life. There is so much beauty around us God gave it all to us, and when you do, raise your voice in a grateful hymn of praise. Thank you, Lord, for the beauty of the earth!
