“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.”
Down by the river, scribbled on the door of a deteriorating warehouse,
is the word "PEACE."
True, a place that is falling in doesn't look very peaceful, but it sure mirrors
the destructive forces in life and our hope for PEACE.
The verse, taken from "The Sermon on the Mount,"
is the seventh beatitude preached by Jesus. When I think of peacemakers,
I recall Sheriff Andy Taylor in "The Andy Griffith Show."

The TV sheriff was called upon to make peace time and again,
reconciling conflicts among the people of Mayberry.

What an interesting looking old warehouse. Were you able to take additional pictures inside?
ReplyDeleteThe interior looked a bit treacherous, so I didn't go in, just took photos through the openings.
ReplyDeleteSo sad to lose Andy last week. He was one of my childhood heroes.
ReplyDeleteLovely capture -- an amazing structure.
Beautiful shot and a wonderful post. Thanks for sharing the video. "But don't the trees seem nice and full?" was my favorite line from that show.
ReplyDeleteNancy, he was one of my heroes too. Lois, I remember that line!
ReplyDeleteLove this shot.. I like the effort someone went to in placing that there. Sad to lose Andy, he was a favorite of mine too... Thank you for sharing on Weekly Top Shot #38!
