there is beauty all around

Some thoughts from my scripture study the last couple weeks, quotes I've collected recently, and pictures from today: rainbow after the rain and animals out on a nature walk.  


"Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low, and the crooked path shall be made straight, and the rough ways shall be made smooth." (Luke 3:5),  When we accept John the Baptist's invitation to repent and change, the Lord can help us straighten our own crooked paths.  

See the salvation of God.


Don't let your eyes or your prejudices deceive you.  "The question is not what you look at, but what you see." -Henry David Thoreau


With celestial sight, trials impossible to change become possible to endure. -Russel M. Nelson


"Disappointment comes to visit on occasion but is never allowed to stay." -Richard Norby


"In the crucible of earthy trials, patiently move forward, and the Savior's healing power will bring you light, understanding, peace and hope...increasing your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ will bring you added strength and greater hope." -Neil L. Andersen


"Here bring your wounded hears, here tell your anguish.  Earth has no sorrow that heav'n cannot heal." (Come Ye Disconsolate)
