Q) Where in the world can you visit a Desert Garden, a Japanese Garden, a Rose Garden, a Chinese Garden, a Jungle Garden, and many other Gardens all in one go?
A) Only in America!
For a birthday treat (both our birthdays are in February) we recently visited Huntingdon Library and we had the most amazing day out.
What struck us was the amazing detail in each and every plant and tree. We could only glorify God as we gazed upon His creation…
Jeremiah 10:12 It is he who made the earth by his power, who established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding stretched out the heavens
Although Huntingdon is famous for its library which contains rare books and manuscripts as well as its Art collection, we went for the Botanical Gardens which are out of this world!
The Botanical Gardens are an ever-changing exhibition of colour and a constant delight. Covering 120 acres, more than a dozen specialized gardens are arranged within a park-like landscape of rolling lawns.
THE CHINESE GARDENS…
THE DESERT GARDENS…
THE JAPANESE GARDENS…
The Huntington Art Gallery, originally the Huntington residence, contains one of the most comprehensive collections in this country of 18th- and 19th-century British and French art.
To think that the one who spoke all this into existence knows us by name and has given us eternal life through His son Jesus Christ…
Colossians 1:16 For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him.
We hope this posts inspires you to see that God created the world in order to display His glory. May His glory also be displayed in your life through His son Jesus Christ
Revelation 4:11 Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they existed and were created.

Hey guys..
Looks like a wonderful place. Glad to see its not all study lol!
Stephen Hawkin has said this week, that Heaven is a fairytale… We have the judgement day lot saying the end of the world is May 21st 2011….. and Arsenal have lost 3rd place to Man City….
But I dont care… cause the Lord loves me, and that I have victory in Him over all things, and as a fellow heir.. All he has been given , is given unto me… how amazing is that. Who are we that God is mindful of us… praise God today that he humbled himself to COME DOWN… and be unmoungst us who knew him not, and chose darkness over light.. to make his HIS people and Him to be OUR God.

love you love you love you!
Beautiful Gardens!
Joshua and I always try to visit a Botanical Garden everywhere we go, our favourite so far would have to be in Rome, not too far from the Vatican. It was a prescious find! The Vatican so busy with mile long queues and then we come to the complete opposite in an amazing tranquil beautiful secluded paradise!
Thank you Jesus for nature! x
