Turquoise.
Orange.
Pink.
It sounds like an atrocious color scheme until you see it in a blazing sunset.
Gratefully, I saw one yesterday, New Year's Day. Glorious!!
Oh, God,
whose spirit moves though all things,
your infinite radiance IS!
Grant that the truth in me shall mirror
your Divinity today and everyday. -C.Stevning

The words are one of my favorite prayers, written by my brother. Thanks, Cam!!
Wonderful colorful picture, but the moon was almost full yesterday!!! In a bit more than two weeks, we'll see a crescent moon at sunset as seen in this picture.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your brother's prayer. Is he a minister?
Hi, Dan!
ReplyDeleteNo, my brother is not a minister...he's just awesome.
Gosh, I just LOVE your art!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm blessed to live in a place where we get sunsets like that almost every day. I never get used to it.
one of the most redeeming things about AZ is her sunsets...
