The Beauty of Heaven Given to Us

The Beauty of Heaven Given to Us

I love to hear the rain,
a beauty from Your reign.

The thunder is sounding from the Heavens so high.
I see Your light shining through the sky.

How beautiful the sky, the deepest shade of blue,
Created by One so true.

You have looked down to us from above,
and through such beauty shown Your love.

Through so much color, the sound of the rain, the feel of the wind...
Thank You for Your gifts. I am glad it was to us where You chose to send.

What a masterpiece You have created!
How beautiful You are!
Let us never be seperated!

This is the first poem I have written in 7 years +. I was sitting last night watching the storm out my bedroom window and was inspired by the beauty of the storm. I just began to thank the Lord for giving me the gift of being able to see and hear His beauty in His creation.

Orange Roughy with Tartar Sauce (courtesy of Michelle Stromko, MD)

6 orange roughy fillets (6 oz each)
1 Tbsp seafood seasoning
2 Tbsp butter, cubed

Tartar Sauce:
2/3 cup chopped dill pickles
1/2 cup mayo
3 Tbsp finely chopped onion
Dash of pepper

Place 3 fillets on each of two double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 18in square). Sprinkle each with seasoning; dot with butter.

Fold foil around fish and seal tightly. Grill, covered, over medium heat for 10-15 min or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Open foil carefully to allow steam to escape.

In a small bowl, combine the sauce ingredients; serve with fish.


Side dish:  Grill Zucchini or Yellow Summer Squash (courtesy of me)

Cut your zucchini/squash down the center lengthwise.

Make several shallow cuts across the open side.

With a cooking brush spread melted butter over the open side of the zucchini/squash. Then sprinkle with Lowry's seasoned salt.

Place on the grill and cook until tender. Place open side up and then turn once or twice.
