The Beauty of the Desert

Birds

While I love the four seasons we enjoy in the Midwest, I am always in awe of God’s creation whenever I travel to other parts of our beautiful country. Some would think that the dry desert is barren and boring, but I totally disagree!

I am in Arizona this week, and even though I left my camera at home, these shots with my iPhone will give you a glimpse of this beautiful land:

Twins

Beauty in the Desert

Vermillion Flycatcher

Mountain View

Queen Victoria Agave

Twisted Tree (I loved this old man!)

Red Yucca

Desert Cardinal

Red Bird of Paradise

Bougainvillea

Evening Sun

Golden Barrel Cactus

Desert Oasis

“The wilderness and the dry land will be glad; the desert will rejoice and blossom like a rose. It will blossom abundantly and will also rejoice with joy and singing.”  Isaiah 35:1-2

    The List

    The list is long. This list never ends, and it often repeats itself. The names, the people, the events are all important. Relevant. Not to you maybe, but to me. To God. As I prayed through the list…
