My Journal Jottings

This morning, early, I sat outside our son Kevin’s condo in the mountains, and was drawn to look closely at two pots over flowing with white and blue and violet flowers.

Also this morning I read that the Welsh poet, Gerard Manley Hopkins, remarked of an individual bluebell that “I do not think I’ve ever seen anything more beautiful … I know the beauty of our Lord by it.”

I would like to be able to see as deeply and clearly as Hopkins did the beauty of the Lord in each minute part of His creation.
