All Things Good

For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, because it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer.
1 Timothy 4:4

When I came across this verse, I paused and read it again.
Everything God has created is good.
When I am outside, I am always in awe of God's creation.
All that he has made is good.

This beautiful heron posed for me at Old Woman's Creek Estuary.
To me, herons are such graceful birds.
They remind me of God's grace when people, like me, sin.
Even when I've failed and marred the good,
God through Jesus restores the good all over again--through forgiveness.
Praise God--His grace covers all my sin.
