GOD The creator of the universe. And the implication from Stephanie is — her God. The influence of a Christian home was never more apparent.
HAS Meaning not will do, but did. Accomplished.
GIVEN A present. Not purchased by Stephanie; not even claimed by any merit. A free gift recognized and acknowledged.
ME What a marvelous love is implied. He did it for me. I know He did. How God must love me to give a present so special Stephanie vibrates, feeling the touch of God.
ANOTHER This sunset is not the first present. He has done it before. He remembers me again.
PINK The color of love and generous feelings. And truly, God is love.
SUNSET Signifying, at the close of this day, remember you are in my care. I gave it just for you. I am with you always.
Well, the “babe” is now a sophomore in college and celebrating her 20th birthday tomorrow — on New Year’s Day.
and Charlotte and Ginger for Spiritual Sunday.
I enjoyed this very much. I will never look at a pink sunset the same! I have always thought of the sun setting as God saying goodnight. But now I will also think of it as Him saying, “I love you.” Especially, when it is pink:)
Awesome write, Susan. The sunset is breathtaking!
I wish you the best of joys, life & loves this New Year.
Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Susan Sweetie…
What a beautiful share today. Yes out of the mouth of a Babe, came your beautiful inspiration for this gorgeous write. It is absolutely breathtaking.
Now when I look into the Phoenix Sunsets that are generally pink, I will think of your precious Stephanie and think, “God has given me another pink sunset.” How beautiful. Happy Birthday to Stephanie as well.
Have a gorgeous New Year’s sweet friend and I so look forward to another beautiful year of shares in 2011.
Many hugs and much love, Sherry
Don’t you just love listening to the little ones? They are so cute and say the most honest things. The sunset is gorgeous and now when I see a desert sunset, I will think of you. Happy Pink Saturday and wishing you and your a very Happy New Year, Char
I so enjoyed your post and beautiful photo. Somehow a pink sunset will never be the same for me anymore but something greater and far more wondrous! Have a blessed New Year!

We had – no God gave us – a beautiful pink sunset a couple of nights ago. Your post made me think about it in a different light. Thank you for sharing.
Blessings for a beautiful New Year!
