~ Connect with a Creative God through Nature ~

God has Created many Beautiful & Inspiring things in Nature, and they can Help us to Connect with Him.

Think about the many types of Flowers and the Wonderful variety of Colours and Shapes.

Think how Creative God is to Design the Beautiful Patterns of a Butterfly.

There is a Huge variety of Tree's, all with different Shapes, Sizes and Colours, God Created every one of them.
Look at the Beautiful Patterns and Intricate Details of a single leaf.

My Wife and I Believe that God Created Nature in such a Beautiful way so that we can All Enjoy it.
Take time to 'Look Around' and Really 'Experience' the Amazing and Beautiful Nature that God has Blessed us with.

There are Billions of Tree's in the world, yet none of them are identical. Every Tree Grows slightly different so that each one is Unique. 

That's the same with people, God Created us All to be Unique.

God is a Creative God and because He made us in 'His own Image', that means we are Creative as well.
Every one of us has got our own 'Unique Creative Talents' that God has Blessed us with and we can use them 'Creatively' to Help Spread Gods Love.

We feel Closest to God when we're surrounded by Beautiful Nature.
We feel more Peaceful and Relaxed when we're away from all the noise and distraction of modern life.

We can 'Connect Better With God' when we're surrounded by Nature.
We Believe this is because God Created us All to be part of Nature.

God made Adam & Eve and placed them in the Garden of Eden Surrounded by Tree's, Flowers and all of His Beautiful Nature.   

God Knew what He was doing when He Surrounded them with Nature, and He did it for a reason.
When you spend time In Nature With God, you Understand why.

A Great way to Grow in your Faith is to 'Get Back To Nature'.

Trees are Very Inspiring and we can all Learn a Lot from them.
How does a tiny Tree Saplings Grow and become so Tall and Strong ?

Well they need to do 3 Very Important things:

1. They need to develop a Good Strong Root System.
 ~ And that's the same for us all. To Grow in our Faith we need to 
develop a Good Strong Root System by forming a Close Relationship with Jesus, Deeply Rooted in Gods Love.

2. The Trees need to Absorb as much Nutrients as they can from the soil.
 ~ We need to Absorb all the Nutrients we can from God. We can do this by Reading the Bible, Praying, and Spending time With God in Nature.
The more Nutrients you Absorb, the more you will Grow.

3. The Trees need to Reach up to the sky and spread out their Branches & Leaves to Absorb as much sunlight as they can.
 ~ We need to Reach up to God with our Arm's Open Wide in Complete Trust, ready to Receive the Warmth of His Amazing and Wonderful Love.

You are One of God's Beautiful Creations.

Connect with God in Nature,
and Grow into the Wonderful Person He Created You to Be.

~ Let Your Gift Glorify God ~

God has given us All a Gift that is Unique & Individual to each one of us.
That Gift might be a Talent, a Skill, an Idea, a Passion for a Good Cause etc.

Some peoples Gifts might seem big while others might seem small, but the Truth is that to God they are All Equally Important.

Over the years my Wife & I have been Very Inspired by different people who have used their Gifts to 'Give Glory' to God.   Here are a few of them:

~ The great artist Bob Ross used his Gift of 'Teaching How To Paint' to Inspire people to See & Enjoy the Beauty that God has Created in Nature. He also used his Gift to Encourage people to Believe in themselves and in what they are capable of Achieving.
His Calming TV Painting program Inspired Millions of people with his Happy & Positive Attitude, which is how God Created us All to Live.

~ Wintley Phipps uses the Gift of his Truly Beautiful Singing voice to Glorify God (and Only God). His Steadfast Faith strengthened him to devote his Entire singing career to songs that Give Glory to God, even when he had Many offers & opportunities to sings in 'worldly' music.
By saying No to the 'world' and Yes to God, Wintley has led Millions of people to God through his singing, and Filled their Ears & Souls with Joy.

~ A Wonderful Lady called Jean that we were Blessed with being friends with used her Gift of 'Love & Care' for people to Glorify God. 
She was part of a Luncheon Club that provided a monthly meal & get together for a Residential Home. Jean would bake Delicious cakes & biscuits for the people to Enjoy and she would give Fun & Inspiring talks and sing songs with the people, all based around God's Wonderful Love & Care.
At the age of 80 Jean had cancer yet she Continued to Give her Love & Care to others. Even when she was in a lot of pain & discomfort she was more concerned about other people.
Jean was a True Inspiration of God's Love & Care and she will be Forever Singing with the Angels in Heaven and giving Glory to God. 

These are just a few of the Many people who have Inspired us by letting their Gifts Glorify God.

We All have Gifts from God. 
These might be ~ Creativity, Singing, Writing, the Gift of Listening, Caring for people, Art, a Passion for Nature, Poetry, it might be a Gift of Baking, Inspiring Talks, Being their for people, Helping people to relax etc, etc.

There are Many different forms of Gifts that God Gives to us.

Whatever ' Your' Gift is, use it in a Positive Way to Give Glory to God. Whether Your Gift is big or small, it's Very Important to God and He will Truly Appreciate it when You use Your Gift for God.

If You use Your Gift to Lead someone to God and help 'Save a Soul',
then You will have Achieved More than All of the 
'accomplishments' of 'worldly' people put together.

God gave ' You'  Your Personal Gift for a reason.

Let Your Gift Glorify God.
