Friday Foto Friends - Reflections of God's Strength and Peace

"You visit the earth and water it,
You greatly enrich it;
The river of God is full of water..."
Psalm 65:9a





Psalm 29:3
"The voice of the Lord is over the waters;
The God of glory thunders;
The Lord is over many waters.


Psalm 29:4-5
The voice of the Lord is powerful;
The voice of the Lord is full of majesty.
The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars,
Yes, the Lord splinters the cedars of Lebanon."



"The Lord sat enthroned at the Flood,
and the Lord sits as King forever"
Psalm 29:10



"The Lord will give strength to His people;
The Lord will bless His people with peace."
Psalm 29:11




Because our weekends are very busy caring for my 93-year old mother in law and other family/church activities, hubby and I try to take at least one morning during the week to take a ride or walk (weather permitting) to someplace nearby where we can spend a few moments to reflect on God's beauty and peace.

 It is my prayer that you will experience that sense of peace that we enjoyed as you reflect upon these pictures taken along the banks of the Ocklawaha River this past week.

Truly He has given "strength to His people" and has blessed "His people with peace."

May your reflections of God bring strength and peace to you today.

I am linking up with Deb and friends over at Friday Foto Friends #47 today.  Please click on this link and check out what others have captured in their "fotos" this week!  Enjoy and be blessed!

    1. Even though I sometimes long for the landscapes of the mountains and northern states during the different seasons of the year, I truly do love the beauty that is surrounding us here in Florida. We just have to look for it and appreciate what God has given us right here. The trick is to make time to seek it out...and sometimes that is easier said than done. Be blessed by friend. I hope your day is bringing you peace and strength.

    1. Oh thank you, Nonnie. We are so thankful for the health our Lord has blessed us with...and we don't take it for granted. That is why we try to get out as much as possible and enjoy the fresh air and beauty of God's creation around us. May your day be filled with joy and blessing too.

    1. Thank you Debbie. Yes, we enjoy any opportunity we can find to do just that. Sometimes we have to grab it on the run! I am a bit behind in communications since we were off the grid this past weekend and I've been a bit busy getting caught up. Blessings to you and yours.
