Chapter I

RENEWAL

Nature’s Promise
Pause

Somewhere in the separation of light and dark. In the space between the dust and the dew. Along the shoreline of every ocean And the worn pathways between the trees in the forests is a place where we find the beginning of everything and the continuation of all creation.
The pattern of life itself on display. This is the place where we find belonging. This is the place that is most familiar and true. This is the place where we find our beginning.

This is the place that is most familiar and most loving.

renewal dances with architecture's embrace,
Structures reborn, whispers of history in each
intricate space.
Through resilient design, ancient and modern entwine,
A symphony of renewal, where dreams and visions align.
EVER PRESENT
EVER CHANGING
EVER RETURNING
THIS IS THE PROMISE OF NATURE

Renewal whispers, connecting souls entwined.

This is the place

where we find our beginning.

When evening hour casts its radiant glow,

spaces bathed in warmth, a heavenly show.

11:44 AM

The sound of waves whisper a promise of an ever returning presence.
The gentle touch of the water touching the shoreline forges an imprint
The song of birds in perfect unison echo an ancestry of earth’s music
The wildness and violence in nature stirs the eternal hearts of man
The sky is the chamber of God’s voice, connecting all humanity.
The stars at night pronounce the glory of heaven itself.
The universe deep and constant.

Every moment and detail of nature.

A beckoning to experience the every day beauty that washes over us.

Moment by moment...a gracious chance to renew everything.

Renew the heart. Renew the mind. Renew relationships. We are all seeking this humble returning.

This is our deepest sense of home and our constant friend.

The song of birds in perfect unison

echo an ancestry of earth’s music

The home, like nature, is the place where we find renewal.

When evening hour casts its radiant glow,

spaces bathed in warmth, a heavenly show.

6:00 PM

Every moment and detail of nature, is an invitation, a beckoning to experience the every day beauty that washes over us. Moment by moment… a gracious chance to renew everything. Renew the heart. Renew the mind. Renew relationships. 
We are all seeking this humble returning. This is our deepest sense of home and our constant friend.
