Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
~~~ Sunday Evening, September 21 Catalyst Christian School (formerly LAMS) ~~~ I only took a few pictures this year.

~~~ Something to Ponder ~~~
As of today, our road is still hidden by cornfields – at least as we look at it from our kitchen windows. We can no longer see most vehicles – only those that are taller than cars, pickup trucks, and motorcycles. I love this view.
The other morning as I was trying to take in the beautiful morning, I noticed how distinctly our basil and Gerbera daisy were facing the Sun. As I took in the beauty, I thought, “That is what God wants from me… …my full-faced attention”.
It looked especially pretty in the morning sunrise a few days ago.

It won’t be long before this nut hits the ground.
I am pleased that our Gerbera Daisy survived the summer and is currently showing off three beautiful blooms. If I remember correctly, the daisy was a hostess gift to us for hosting a Sunday lunch earlier this year.
The other day on my walk, I came upon a cute little patch of clover that was blooming. As I looked at the clover, I thought, “Clover and bees go together. There must be some bees nearby.” Sure enough, there was a bee. I love the taste of clover honey. I smiled when I saw […]
The other day I took a walk down our road to see what is happening in the corn fields that line the road. The tassels waved beautifully as a slight breeze moved them. The tassels are responsible for the male part of pollen production. Pollination from the tassels is received by the silk (mostly by […]
