A Cup Overflowing, 861-880

It is a good thing to give thanks to the Lord, 

and to sing praises to Your Name, O Most High;

To tell of Your loving-kindness early in the morning 

and of Your faithfulness in the night season;

For as it was in the beginning, it is now and evermore shall be.

Alleluia.

Psalm 92:1-2, Gloria

#861  homemade strawberry and cream pie

#862  fresh pears picked from a tree my grandfather planted decades ago

#863  fig season ... and bugs

#864  summer's last attempt with green sprigs

#865  rays of hope in difficult seasons

#866  rain streaks lit by the sun

#867  a spider's catch

#868  that God's grace is always enough and His power fulfilled

#869  for the consolation God brings through nature's waking -- the sun, the birds' songs, the cicadas, squirrels at play, the green of the trees

#870  a reuniting after a season apart

#871  a small sparrow's breakfast in the rain

#872  a beautifully woven spiderweb glistening in the sun just outside my window

#873  random outdoor church service under the shade of an oak

#874  living in a small town

#875  experiencing much needed community while standing in line at Subway

#876  morning light high in the pines

#877  that I said "Yes" 35 years ago

#878  hearing "G-Nan!" again after such a long span

#879  little boys at play

#880  sun peaking through

Alleluia!
