This is based upon a story of two women watching a marvelous sunset on a beach...
They had sat down an hour or so before sunset, below them were some young people having a beach party... There was the usual noise and activity of the young people... Which caused the two women to consider going in because of the shrieking group on the shore line...
Then suddenly a glorious sunset began to swept the western horizon; as a kaleidoscopic of reds, pimks, gold, and lavenders streaked across the sky! A deep hush fell upon the youth on the beach, as their voices settled into a gentle murmur, a peace descended on all... Then finally as the last glimmer of the Red Ball sank below the horizon; a great wave of spontaneous applause burst from the youth on the beach!
" They are applauding God!" one lady exclaimed
" No," the other lady countered, " They're just applauding Nature!"
Smiling the first lady replied " Somewhere I read that; ' A sunset is nature, while all beauty is from God!' I do not think you can have one with out the other!"
