Mountain Grandeur

I don't know what it is about this picture that I love so much. Maybe the peaceful landscape and the cute man beside me? Or that we are accidentally matching? Or that fact that it brings to mind the words of this hymn:

When I look down, from lofty mountain grandeur
And see the brook, and feel the gentle breeze
Then sing my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!

There were mountains around and more like a strong breeze! But still the words hold true! How great is our God!

Trees In The Desert

In a desert land we have found an amazing escape- the King Hussein Park. Filled with green trees and amazing landscapes. My husband and I often drive there for an evening walk. In the summer time it is literally overflowing with people having picnics...but in the winter, the beautiful winter, it feels as though  it is our own private park. We always marvel at the stunning park in the middle of a bustling, desert city. It is very near to our house and one of the things we enjoy most. Our trees in the desert.
