Do you have a favorite color?  If I was forced to choose, my favorite would be blue.  Cobalt or royal blue are strong contenders for first place, but robin’s egg, sky blue, navy and even periwinkle could all get a vote.  Then again I also like the sunny yellows, the vibrant gold and even the sultry mustard.  The greens seem restful to my eyes and calming to my mind.  I prefer the dark forest green to the washed out green of Florida, but in the end both are pleasing.  My brother favors the reds as his signature colors and I think my wife looks good in the purple shades.  Perhaps we favor those colors which look best on us.  We certainly are affected by the colors of the world around us.  We are comfortable with the soft pastels, but also like the intense saturated colors.  Even black and gray have their appeal.  White looks good on more than just brides and most of us have some in our wardrobe.  All in all color is a wonderful gift to our senses.  How creative of God to paint the world in technicolor even before the movies discovered it.  It could have just been multiple shades of gray, but what would be the fun in that?  Thank you, God for creating such a wonderful, beautiful and colorful world.
