It strikes me that the power of God is so amazing. He is in all that I see. However I do have to be looking in order to know this.
When I go out and about that is the time that I spend thanking God for all He has given to me. I see the beautiful flowers, the amazing lakes, the adorable little animals and me, right there to enjoy all of it!!
I sometimes wonder if other people see all of this beauty or is it only us "artsy ones" that do? I hope it is everyone because it has the power to uplift my attitude, cause me to cry with pleasure and sigh with happiness. I want these feeling for all the people I know.
I like to ride my bike many places I go, and in doing so I get a good view of the world around me. This is time that I hear, see and smell everything that the season has to offer.
I take this time to thank God for allowing me to be present at that time, in that place and experiencing those feelings.
Don't get me wrong, there are many days that I just rush around and neglect to observe what is all around me. I just run from place to place and chore to chore without really seeing.
Hmm, what if when I do this it is like when I am talking to Mark and he is not paying attention to me? Is God talking during these times and I am too busy to pay attention to Him? I bet He is and I am missing out big time! What a huge loss for me.
What was He showing me that I could have held in my memory forever? Who did I not be polite to that I could have brightened their day? So many important things going on and I want to try to be present every moment of it!
