The A Gang: For the Beauty of the Earth

For the Beauty of the Earth

For the beauty of the earth, For the beauty of the skies. For the love which from our birth, Over and around us lies, Lord of all to thee we raise. This our Hymn of grateful praise.

That song says it all. TheLord has indeed blessed us with bountiest beauties. We are so fortunate to live where we can step out our back door and see some of the many creations of our Heavenly Father blessed us with. We are indeed grateful and praise him.

Bart said...: You do live in a beautiful spot and remembering WHO made it for us all just makes it even better and more beautiful.

I'm so thankful for our eyes, and of course our digital cameras.

Love you all and always,

"To you women of today, who are old or young, may I suggest to you that you write, that you keep journals, that you express your thoughts on paper. Writing is a great discipline. It is a tremendous education effort. It will assist you in various ways, and you will bless the lives of many--now and in the years to come, as you put on paper some of your experiences and some of your musings."
--President Gordon B. Hinckley

"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep a record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh you memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. Some may be significant only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experience.
--Gordon B. Hinckley, 2006

"When our children were very small, I started to write down a few things about what happened every day..." The prompting came to me, "I'm not giving you these experiences for yourself. Write them down." "I recorded those things so that my children could have the memory someday when they would need it." "Have I seen the hand of God reaching out to touch us or our children or our family today?" "I urge you to find ways to recognize God's kindness."
--Elder Eyring 2007
