Recently we were in Tulsa, my home town, for a Gaither Homecoming concert. We took a day to visit a few places I have not visited in a very long time. One of our stops was the Tulsa Rose Garden. Scroll down to my Wordless Wednesday post to see the flowers. This is the greenhouse located on the grounds. The main building is a mansion built in 1919. There is a carriage house and this green house located immediately behind the mansion. I cannot imagine living at this scale. The Rose Garden, Woodward Park, and the mansion make up a very special place, prepared for the enjoyment of the citizens of Tulsa.
I am reminded that there is a place prepared for me and it is far beyond my imagination. My Creator, Savior, and Heavenly Father have prepared it for me. As beautiful as the grounds of the Rose Garden are, they will pale in comparison to that place that I will spend eternity. For that reason, I don't want to get adjusted to this world. The Gaithers say it much better than I. Enjoy and have a blessed week-end.
Great shot. A classic picture really of Tulsa. Right on the other side of the greenhouse is the children's garden that Heather and I built earlier this year.

Nice shot! Happy skywatching!
