Garden Memories

In our distant ancestoral memory is a perfect and beautiful garden. Our joy was to work it, enhance it's beauty and find ourselves at peace when we sit and observe it's details.

It is that memory that calls to us and tells us to find our place outside in nature. The mountains are beautiful. The plains are beautiful. Even the desert is a sight to behold. Here in south Mississippi, though, are some of the most amazing views and get-aways in our country. Watching the shadows of the Cyprus trees lay quietly on the glassy rivers or watching the cranes skim the surface of the Gulf are as beautiul as anything ive seen.

If you've forgotten what those scenes look like, it may be time to go take another look.

Find a place to sit with the creation this Fall. It remains one of God's greatest gifts to us.
