Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God,
But only he who sees takes off his shoes; The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries.
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT LOOKS LIKE NORTHFIELD! I can never remember what DAY your birthday is- like Christine's (April..what?)- I always know it's in the 20s in July but I never know when- but here it is!! God IS pouring out his blessings on you- all over you- smothering you with his loveliness. Definitely love the polka dot dress :) I can't believe you're 23! AH! Happy Birthday! I love you so much and I miss you!! Can't wait till you come home again!
LOVE and LOVE and LOVE and the PEACE of Jesus to you!
Happy Birthday Becca! I hope your days are blessed, I'm praying for you!
1 A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want; 2 he makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters; 3 he restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. 4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil; for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me. 5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of my enemies; thou anointest my head with oil, my cup overflows. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD for ever. Psalm 23 (RSV)
Yeah your picture reminds me of this psalm and it just happens to be the 23rd psalm... Wow.
Soooo beautiful! I love this! I hope your birthday was FULL of ALL of God's blessings! ...is that Wisconsin? Because it definitely looks like it. Ahhh how wonderful home is! And how wonderful to celebrate a friend's birthday. :)
I want to live slowly enough to always recognize heaven in every person I meet, every place I see, and all those seemingly monotonous activities we all must do each day. These posts are just one way I can recognize all the little gifts God gives me each and every day. May I never fail to recognize them.
I am happy to be 23.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
