Fountains that have seen more summers than the people that drink from them.
Roses that scent the walls they climb.
Churches that people walk into day after day, churches that speak of centuries and architecture and skill. And I wonder. Do people realise you can meet him anywhere, that he isn't confined to ancient walls. God of the ages though he may be.
And I want to drain the cup that he gives me, but I don't realise it will never empty. Because his water never stops flowing and I sit still in this second summer, and drink.

Sarah -
The picture of you and the rose is absolutely beautiful!!
We are having some very hot days in southern New Jersey. In the 90's most days - our vegetable garden seems to love it, though. The chickens are walking around with their beaks open, panting - we try to give them fresh cool water several times each day. The heat also seems to discourage them from laying eggs - only a few each day when we should be gathering about 10.
Praying for you often and your family. How wonderful that we can trust one another to God's care and keeping even when miles apart.
So happy for your wonderful opportunity to spend time in Europe.
God is good.
Love, Esther

Beautiful!!! Drinking deep with you, sweet sister!
What lovely pictures! I love the one of you in that dainty lace blouse smelling a perfectly pink rose.
It's a pleasure to meet you : )
