Sonshine!

I am thankful for the rain and wind last night! I could hear the power of God in the thunder and see it in the lightening!Hopefully, the storm blew all that pollen away! Sorry Bees, I'm sure that you would like some of that pollen. God provides for all our needs. He gives us rain, wind and the much needed sun today. The sun brightens our world. I'm thankful that Jesus is the light of the world. It is amazing to me how all the planets revolve around the sun. That is just as it is supposed to be. God as the center of our universe. Things don't work out when I try to put myself as the focus because God designed it so that He would be the source of energy, light, love and goodness. It surely doesn't come from within me.

This is a photograph of my butterfly garden two summers ago. These beautiful orange flowers popped up in the garden and the butterflies loved them. The flowers remind me of the sun. The butterflies symbolize how we are changed into a new creation when we begin a relationship with God's Son! Sonshine!

Human Season

The idea for Human Season came from a Keats Poem ( My friend Julie Lee introduced me to Keats.) Again at home group we were in Hebrews discussing 6:4. We discussed how there is a difference between falling away from God and going through certain seasons of growth with God. It made me think about the natural order to the seasons. Similar to seasons in our relationships with others and God. It is spring now and I seem to see God everywhere, in the Snowbells that pop up in different places in my garden each year. I also see God in the blooming Dogwood trees that are in their last days. However, at other times, I don't see Him. Maybe because I'm not looking for Him or in a winter season of hibernation. Could I be there for a reason so that in the spring my eyes will be opened to his grace and glory?

God Even Cares About the Cheese!

The idea for this blog came from a discussion at a home group meeting. We were talking about the need to recognize how God works in our lives every day! Too often I overlook the things God does and the ways he answers prayers. I live day to day and forget what remarkable things he does in my life and the lives of others. I don't want to overlook these things anymore so I plan to write them down. Feel free to join me. Comment on anything He has done in your life.

God Even Cares About the Cheese!

Comes from a day recently when I was working at a homeless shelter. I was making sandwiches with my wonderful little friend Katie. We had to make 43 sandwiches and three requested no cheese. We had exactly 40 pieces of cheese. Yes, it seems like a very small thing to be overlooked. But that is exactly why I want to write it down. It is one of those small miracles that I would normally overlook. However, I don't want to overlook these things anymore! I want to thank God for being so involved in my life that He cares about such a detail as providing enough cheese for a homeless person's sandwich.
I look forward to the daily miracles in the days ahead!
