Vero Lake: Living in the Country here in Florida

What a day of blessings! While we did have rain overnight and some while out and about, a lot while out at our home, we did enjoy a nice outing. We had a nice time at Golden Sands Beach, it was so nice, a real blessing, fairly calm, and so nice. We had wanted to go to Pelican Island Refuge and the Sebastian Inlet, we have lived here for 3+ years, but have never gone that far north before on A1A. Today we did! What a blessing! So nice, no people, so much nature and dunes and all. It was a lovely day to see all. There are so many trails for hiking and birding. So much to see and enjoy! God is so good to us here where we live. The beaches at the Sebastian Inlet reminded us of Cape Cod some, so much nature, little growth or population in this area. We are blessed blessed blessed! We live in such a pristine, naturally, and peaceful place with so much nature to enjoy and give thanks to God for! What a blessing!   

                                             Create a clean heart in me, O God, and renew a faithful spirit within me. ~Psalm 51:10 I feel so blessed! God is creating in me a clean heart. He renews a faithful spirit within me, what a blessing! I had I nice walk this week by the lake and woods by my house, which I love. I love all the nature and peace here. We have a big lake and pond close by, I love all the woods, nature, plants, animals, it is so nice to be around, it gives me so much peace and I pray and give thanks to God as well. The beach was nice, it has been cloudy this week, cooler some, the water is cooler, but still I enjoy it. I love seeing all the birds, the seagulls, sandpipers, and pelicans. I really feel so blessed. God continues to bless us and give us peace. Peace is so important. I just do not know how people live without God in their lives. Without Jesus...

  Blessed with cardinals all around here! I love their bird call and today I put a bird feeder by the St. Francis statue and the female cardinal came for some food. We see and hear them all day long. Yesterday when I went for a walk, one flew up very close to me, as if it wanted to perch on me. I just love birds! My mom did too. Sometimes I think when I see and hear them it is my mom speaking through them to me. What love from God!  I feel so bird blessed! God is so wonderful in our lives if we look for it and listen to Him! VLE, where I live,  is a great place to see a lot of birds and wildlife! So so blessed! 

  I just love the woods here in VLE, the pond, and the lake, so picturesque and nice to walk around! We are blessed and lucky to live in this little piece of paradise here in Florida. Woods, lakes, ponds, and the beach so close to us. I love the dirt roads, cows, horses, cattails all around us! There is something very special about this place here in VLE in Indian River County! So so blessed! 

  I love this little lake by our house, it is nice to walk around or bike. I love seeing all these pine trees, plus all the pretty holly, many still have many holly berries still! It is nice to see the pine needle floors here by all the pine trees around the lake. Very pretty, nice to be out in nature and to walk and be at peace with God and nature. We love our country home here in VLE! So much peace and quiet! So much tranquility! Life is so much better in the country! Thank you God!  There were some really big birds, vultures in some of the trees today!
