Victoria - the Park of Local Nature

One of my favorite pastimes I have having a leisurely stroll in my Victoria Park especially like today, it's so lovely and sunny wondering if it was ever like this in the ark Just sitting by the side of the pond full of ducks, birds, and many a swan so great seeing nature at its height we'll dread the day when it's all gone Looking up into the deep blue sky so clear over the white clouds so still amidst folk walking their dogs along beside the water edge like a normal drill Here we see God's wonderful creation everything around has the mark of His hand His glory is seen in the post clock nearby 'now is the day of salvation' there does stand These evangelistic words there for all to see pray many read them to follow and obey God is there in word and in nature there's no excuse but walk in His day (My favorite walks in Victoria Park nearby which is such a pleasurable pastime. This park is in the Partick area of Glasgow, Scotland.)

Nothing beats being at one with nature and admiring the wonders of creation Gordon. Hope you're well and enjoying your weekend. Just had a week away in Wales, going we went through the Elan Valley and the scenery was spectacular. Tom

Thanks Tom, so good to hear from you and pleased you were able to get away to Wales and enjoyed the scenery there. We had a few days at Southport recently and it was nice and sunny most of the time. Do have a blessed weekend, Gordon
