Favorite Things Friday, September 9th Edition






One of my favorite things this week has been the amazing sunsets. After several days of rain the sun was beautiful to see, but the sunsets were gorgeous!


Have you ever tried to slow a sunset down? They happen so quickly, and no matter how you try to savor it and hang on it just keeps slipping until all at once it's over. Thankfully, we only have to wait another 24 hours until the next one.


Sunsets always remind me of God's love. If He paints the sky in such amazing hues everyday just to delight our hearts, how can we question His love for us? I know bad things happen, and we tend to focus on them, but have you ever stopped to count the beautiful, each one unique, sunsets in your life?

    There is something so beautiful about each sunset isn't there? It's as if no matter what the day has been like we get a show at the end of us to remind us of how wonderful simple things can be .

    Your pictures are just gorgeous !

    Thank you for sharing your sunset with us.

    Sunset and sunrise are my favorite times of day. They can energize you and still give you a sense of peace. Beautiful photos.

    Love your sunset pictures. I only take the time to watch them when I'm on vacation.. I need to take the time to watch them at other times too.
