Beauty in the Rubble

These are some pictures I took while taking a walk though an abandoned mobile home park. It had been destroyed by a tropical storm/ hurricane. It was so sad to walk through the blocks and blocks of what used to be at one times mobile homes full of life.  As I so much of the time do, I began to contemplate and talk to the Lord about what I was seeing and how I could learn from it all. I am going through so much right now in my own personal life I began to ask the Lord to show me  from it all - and He did. 
Like He always does!
As I walked down the broken up black top street I began to see things differently.
 I began to see random pictures of beauty here and there.

I thought I would share them with you.
So here they are for your viewing pleasure.

"Death to Self"


A stone I found sitting in the middle of a shuffle board court. Reminded me of an unmarked grave stone.
Reminding me that even after the storm - we must remember to forgive - and forget the past.
NOT be like Lots wife.

Below.
I think this speaks for itself.
Purty flowers growing in - well after the storm has come AND gone
and WE have MOVED on as well.
We sow what we reap.
Seeds left behind.

 













I love THIS.

Can you see the cloud?

It's as if it is reaching down from the sky.

Then there is one palm tree standing so very tall all by itself.

There were a few others at one time, but the storm actually blew them down.

This spoke strength to me.



Here's another  TALL palm in the same  park.

"Perseverance"








THIS one speaks "New Beginnings"

Can you see the baby palm growing in the road?








This is actually a true blue regular palm tree.

It has sprouted up through the black top -

right in the middle of what used to be one of the

main roads that ran through the mobile home park.

                      "Life"



This is the last picture I took at the park.
I call it,
"New Heavens - New Earth"


It reminds me that no matter what when it's all said and done - what really matters is -
Isn't what really matters to me.

All I want is to be more like Him and less like me.

That's what REALLY Matters.
