​God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands... Acts 17:24

Easter Sunday, April 16, 2017, 3:03 PM - We had a nice sunrise service in the woods this morning at 6:30 AM. Although the chilly morning air isn't perfectly suited to formal attire, and the yellow pollen coats the dress shoes, the outside air and view of nature is a perfect backdrop to morning worship. During the short sermon, the birds awoke and provided a musical background. Others may not have noticed, but the call of an Eastern Towhee kept distracting my attention from pastor's words!

After morning service, I had a chance to relax in my backyard. ​It turned out to be a very nice, warm, day; perfect for catching a short nap. I like to record when I have a chance to relax. I am frequently complaining about the hectic pace of life and saying I “never” get to relax. Taking note reminds me that “never” might be too strong a word.
