Watching The Rain Coming Across Lake Ontario
There was Sun and Clouds behind me,
And the Storm in front of me.
Soon to be over my head.
The sun shining on the clouds changed their color.
It was like a natural filter.
And then it was time to head for the van just in time,
before the downpour of rain.
This picture was taken about an hour earlier
And I was hoping for a break in the clouds.
This is what I saw and this picture is out of my camera.
Dull and so needing some light to brighten the colors and my view.
This photo was taken earlier in the day as we were driving along looking for Autumn colors in Prince Edward County. So Beautiful. It was a day when one minute the sun was out and the next several minutes was dark and dreary. It was like driving in and out of the clouds. No consistency, but inconsistency itself.
I am not sure where I am going with this,
But going back to the storm ahead of me, then minutes away from me.
I look behind me and this is what I saw.
As the Dark clouds moved in there was still a window of light shining through the darkness, now threatening to surround me.
And over to my right I looked up and saw this image above the clouds. Again these cloud pictures are not altered in any way other than resized.
Funny, but I didn’t take a close look at these pictures until tonight. These pictures were taken October 20th/2012.
What I see you may not see. But as I look at these pictures I feel the Love, and Presence of God.
Though storms may come, I know that they will also pass. My God is watching over me, as I walk with Him, He is watching over me, day by day.
I am reminded that as a Believer, and a Child of God, I am to walk by Faith, Not by sight.
And I know that Brighter Days lay ahead, and Jesus is my Light that shines in the darkness. All I have to do is Hope and Trust in Him, in every circumstance of life. Living the Christian life is not always an easy road to travel, but it is worth more than silver and gold.
Jesus said, that in this life we would have trouble but fear not for He has overcome the world. So take heart brothers and sisters. We have a Glorious Hope in Jesus. Jesus said, He would come back to set all things right. I believe Him. Jesus is Coming Again.
Are you ready?
As we get ready to celebrate Christmas, remember there is more to the story.
I could go on but it is time to call it a night.
This post is made up of my thoughts and images.
I have shared from my heart.
God Bless and be with all those who pass through and take the time to read this.
Sincerely Dianne :)

Accept for the picture with me in it which was taken by my husband, 4% Vision.
In the month of Oct. we had continued rain and grey skies for all but 5 days of sun. It was a long month. I didn’t get out much to capture the Brilliant Colors of Autumn this year accept for a handful of pictures, and for that I am grateful.
My thoughts and prayers are with those who have been affected by Hurricane Sandy. May the storm clouds disappear, and you all experience Brighter days ahead.
The photos are beautiful Dianne. Your thoughts are healing ones. thank you!

It is never easy when we loose those we love. Yes, we do have the memories, but the loss is deep. Sending a big old hug to you. You, are in my thought and prayers.
DeleteVery enjoyable pictures Dianne! I'm an avid storm lover so it's fun to see the pictures of the storm structure that you have here. It's a dreary election day here today but I'm determined to keep my chin up and look to the good thing the Lord has in store for us. Bless you.
ReplyDeleteI am so ready for the new earth but there is so much work still to do for His kingdom.
ReplyDeleteI was caught up in your cloud formations. You made me wonder what it would be like to be a cloud to change yourself all the time. All the different moods you can present. But even on days that the sun isn't out all the time it is important to know God's light always shines on you. Have a very blessed week. Hugs Carrie
