Lesson Summary - Chapter 5 - "The Creation"

Gospel Principles - Chapter 5 - "The Creation"

One thing that really struck me today while listening to this lesson was the gratitude we should feel for all the beautiful things our God has created for us.  Our teacher asked us what creations we loved and appreciated.  It got me to thinking about all the little things for which I am grateful.  I wanted to share those with you, but I didn't want to just tell you.  I wanted to show you, so that you can see what I see when I view the world.

Flowers.  I love them.

I love them after the rain.

I love them before they even bloom.

I love them no matter how small.

Or how fuzzy.

I especially love them when they're given to me.  :)

I think moss on trees is beautiful.

The best kind of waterfalls are the ones I find in the ditch of our front yard.

Red is the most beautiful when it appears naturally.

How does God make dying leaves so breathtaking?

It's always fun to find unusual moments in nature.

Hot chocolate on a cold day is one of God's greatest creations. :)

So are warm days after way too many cold ones.

I'm so grateful God created my loving husband and wonderful son.

And I'm even grateful for messy little girls.  :)

I hope that as we all go through life that we remember all the big things as well as the little things that God created just for us.  If you're ever doubting God's love for you, just look around.  All of these creations... the sun... moon... stars... they're just for you.
