The heavens declare the Glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of His hands.
Psalm 19:1
As I rise with the dawn, may my heart always pour forth gratitude, praise on my lips to my one and only Savior, Creator of all, the One who resides in my heart, may I live in between the sun going up and coming down in a way that pleases you Heavenly Father and forgive me for when I have not.
Thank you Father for each new day, new starts, new beginnings, new opportunities. . .
Thank you Father for giving beauty that takes my breath away
Thank you Father for being with me each day helping me, teaching me, and loving me between the sunrise and sunset
and thank you Father as I lay my head back down on my pillow at the end of the day for watching over me not only between the sunrise and sunset, but after I drift off to sleep, watching not only over me but my loved ones, and loving us beyond the sunsets . . .I count my blessings from You and I thank you with sleepy eyes, I thank You, thank You, thank You, thaaannkk Youuuu. . . . .
From the rising of the sun to its setting
the name of the Lord is to be praised!
The Lord is high above all nations,
and His glory above the heavens!

These are some gorgeous pictures Kris! I was blessed by this post this morning.
I loved your pictures! I think my favorite is the old maids lace, but the wheat is equally beautiful! Just found your blog and am inspired by reading.
Your pictures are gorgeous! I love being able to have the windows open and watching fireflies too!
Thanks for stopping by my blog!
lovely photos! fireflies, lemonade, crisp sheets... sounds like summer is here!
fireflies! I LOVE fireflies!
Oh, my goodness...these pictures are AMAZING. I aspire to capture God's palate that well. The pictures are a million blessings without any words attached at all.
You took my breath away, Kristin!!! You captured moments of beauty that are beyond beautiful!!!! It made me want to get my camera out and try again. I'm just so bad with taking pictures and give up so easily! It is amazing what happens between the beauty of sunrise and sunset, isn't it? And I miss so much because I'm too busy to see. Thank you for this! The old song we used to sing, "The Wonder of it all. .." is going through my heart right now!
BEAUTIFUL PRAISE! Love this! And you know I love all of Keith's photography!!!
love this...esp the blessings!
Love what you said about living between the sun rise and sunset. I want to be living for God all day long and have my mind set on Him. Great pictures!
