So Colorful!

Today, we are going to a birthday party for my daughter's 80 year old grandmother. The drive yesterday was long and mountainous. I really enjoyed it even though I can't really drive as long as I used to. There were a few times when I was getting sleep, so I stopped, got coffee or some kind of caffeine and walked around a bit... then I was good to go.

One of the cool things about this time of year in this area is that the trees are so beautiful especially here is the mountains. As we were driving I was in awe of the trees and the striation of greens. So many different shades it was so very wonderful. It is sad that my "painting" doesn't do it justice. The road curving up the mountain, and the trees all around...

God made this world so full of color, not just in nature but in us also. It is a shame that we put to much emphasis on the differences, which we call races. God only created one race..... HUMAN! the variation in color makes us each unique... He could of made us all look exactly the same, but God is a God of uniqueness and He desires us to be also.

And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings,  Acts 17:26

 The rich and the poor have this in common, The Lord is the maker of them all. Proverbs 22:2

So, we should remember that God loves us all, He made us all. We should encourage children to sing and believe the song Jesus Loves the Little Children. I did not know there were so many verse in this song maybe we should learn them all instead of just the chorus.

Jesus loves the little children
All the children of the world
Black and yellow, red and white
They're all precious in His sight
Jesus loves the little children of the world

Whether you're rich or whether you're poor
It matters not to Him
He remembers where you're going
Not where you've been

Jesus loves the little children
All the children of the world
Black and yellow, red and white
They're all precious in His sight
Jesus loves the little children of the world

If your heart is troubled
Don't worry, don't you fret
He knows that you have heard His call
And he won't forget

Jesus loves the little children
All the children of the world
Black and yellow, red and white
They're all precious in His sight
Jesus loves the little children of the world

All around the world tonight
His children rest assured
That He will watch and He will keep us
Safe and secure

Jesus loves the little children
All the children of the world
Black and yellow, red and white
They're all precious in His sight
Jesus loves the little children of the world

The world is a wonderfully colorful place that would be really boring if there was no color or differences in us all. We need to embrace the beauty in it all and thank God for His masterpieces. Thank you for reading and God bless you all.
