Embracing Kingdom Hope for a Broken World
Beauty of Creation: Lily Pads
Beauty of Creation: a series where we look to take a moment and appreciate the amazing glory of God’s creation.

This photo seemed appropriate as we enter into spring. I know we often think of the New Year as a time for resolutions, but I sometimes wonder if spring/ Easter is more suited for this as a time of new beginnings and transformation. With the arrival of spring and the celebration of the resurrection of our Savior a little over a week away, where do you need to find new beginnings? How about with regards to creation care? Is now the time to take on a new challenge to better care for God’s creation? Reflect on these questions as you ponder God’s glorious creation.
Have you taken a picture that contains a glimpse of God’s glorious creation? Consider sharing it with our Creation Hope readers. Send it to us and we will post it so that others may appreciate the majesty of God’s creation.
