PICTURE PERFECT FRIDAY ~ EXTRAVAGANCE

Hat Creek ~ tucked away off a little road in Northern California.     Easy to drive right over and not even know there is so much beauty below.   A perfect place for a picnic with someone you love, but most of all a wonderful example of God's love ~ ~ ~  So much love has He for us, in fact, that He created such extravagant beauty in the world for us to enjoy.

 

 

"Where there is no extravagance

 there is no love,

and where there is no love

there is no understanding."

    God did wonderful things with nature but His most wonderous works are the hearts of people like you who can see and appreciate those works and show them to the rest of us through your eyes.

    How I wish I was with the two of you for that picnic.

    Beautiful photo, music and most wonderful thoughts from the heart of you Linda. I'm a lucky woman to have your friendship.

    I miss your beautiful music and clip arts and lenthy words...you should just cheat and do your normal beautiful posts Linda! :o) But the photograph you chose is beautiful, so green and lush. You're right about God's extravagant beauty. It's in most everything if we take a moment to recognize what we are looking at ...
