A God painted sky

Tonight we had a brief but heavy storm.  After it ended, Tabby said that the sunset looked beautiful.  I grabbed my camera and we ran out to the road.  It felt like we were in one of those Thomas Kincade paintings showing light after a rain.  Sun streaks in beautiful colors painted the road.  The cows in the pasture across from us grazed in a large halo of light.  Beautiful.  Way too beautiful for my camera to capture.  But here are some of its attempts:






I love little blessings like this.  A few minutes of escape from a normal busy day can really bring a feeling of peace and calming over me.

    Thank you for posting these pictures! I saw them last night after thinking much of the day of a Rich Mullins song called "The Color Green" and the picture with the green field stretching so far is just breath taking...it made me smile at the very real thought that our God made the color green and man oh man its so beautiful!

      Yes it is! I'm so happy that everything is in bloom and the trees are dressed in green again. Things look more full and beautiful. :)

      It really was! And I felt better all night because of it. I need to seriously make myself take the time to do things like that more often.
