December Sunset

December Sunset

Here’s a beautiful south Georgia sunset in late December. Now 2013 has come in and we begin another year thanking God for the blessings He gives us and asking Him to guide us in what we do – all to His glory.

“Show me Your ways, O Lord; Teach me Your paths. Lead me in Your truth and teach me, For You are the God of my salvation; On You I wait all the day. Remember, O Lord, Your tender mercies and Your lovingkindnesses, For they are from of old. Do not remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; According to Your mercy remember me, For Your goodness’ sake, O Lord.” Psalms 25:4-7 NKJV

Blessings from God – Plumbago

Plumbago

Sharon likes blue, and thankfully we had a good year for plumbago. We haven’t had success in the past. One year they just rotted away. Another year they froze (we actually had several weeks of cold in a row.)

But, this year, this bush looked good with others in the back bed. Success after several tries.

More blessings from God!

“Oh sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth!
Sing to the LORD, bless his name; tell of his salvation from day to day.
Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples!” Psalms 96:1-3 ESV
