I believe all of us 'here' do appreciate all these beautiful things and we share the world's beauty in the graphics we post each day - as you did. It is sad to think of those who are trapped in the brick and cement of the 'inner cities' and never get out to see the beauty of the countryside.

Me too ML, I live for Spring each year, lol. One of my daughters brought me a vase full of wildflowers she had picked for me. She jogs on some 'trails' and kept gathering them, so sweet of her.

The Riches Of Obedience May 13, 2015
I have rejoiced in your laws as much as in riches.
Psalm 119:14 nlt
Publicly operated lotteries exist in more than 100 countries. In a recent year, lottery ticket sales totaled more than $85 billion in just the US and Canada, only part of the total sales worldwide. The lure of huge jackpots has created a mindset among many that all of lifes problems would be solved if I won the lottery.
Theres nothing wrong with wealth itself, but it has the power to deceive us into thinking that money is the answer to all our needs. The psalmist, expressing a different point of view, wrote: I have rejoiced in your laws as much as in riches. . . . I will delight in your decrees and not forget your word (Ps. 119:14,16 nlt). This concept of spiritual treasure is focused on obedience to God and walking in the path of [His] commandments (v.35).
What if we were more excited about following the Lords Word than about winning a jackpot worth millions? With the psalmist we might pray, Incline my heart to Your testimonies, and not to covetousness. Turn away my eyes from looking at worthless things, and revive me in Your way (vv.36-37).
The riches of obediencetrue richesbelong to all who walk with the Lord.
Dear Lord, may I commit each day to standing on the unchanging truth of Your Word and to growing in my relationship with You, the only measure of success in this life and in eternity.
Success is knowing and loving God.
: Psalm 119 is the longest chapter in the Bible. Its 176 verses are presented in 22 stanzas of 8 verses each, and each stanza corresponds to the successive letters of the Hebrew alphabet. Because it is an acrostic song, Spurgeon said it could be called the alphabet of love, for it unfolds Gods loving provision of wisdom for His children.

Song of the She-Wolf (A Poem by LTOS)
I am the Alpha Female.
I am the Queen of the Pack.
When I bark out my orders,
Nobody dares Bark Back.
I am an Expert Huntress.
I make sure that all get fed.
When They are fat and happy,
Nobody minds being led.
I am the Alpha Female.
But it takes up all my time.
Hunting, and stalking, and killing,
And keeping these puppies in line.
I am the Alpha Female,
But sometimes I feel like a slave.
I think I'll move in with the humans,
And sleep in a nice warm cave!
