The Wonders of Gods Art in Nature

It is like I woke up from a dream. I stand at the bus stop and I notice the people coming towards me. In the past when people passed me I never noticed or cared what were actually twenty people in the past seemed like five. But a couple of months ago it seemed like thousands; people of all different size, shape, and color. On one certain day a couple of months ago as I was walking to the bus stop I noticed the intricate details of the trees, the unusual style of bark on the post next to me and the bricks and the weeds growing on houses in a unique crisscross styled way. I notice and I take not but it is more than that I admire. I love the way the bricks are laid and the horrible but also beautiful way the fences are lined. We categorize people, things,and places too much. Instead of taking time to really listen to our surroundings we grumble we complain and we at least I admittedly think we know it all. But, what creative design awaits us all to discover. Even the smallest most trivial events come alive in Christ in the Spirit of God. What a wonderful creator we all serve what a glorious life we are able to live when we open our eyes to what is around us. Let us open our eyes together to what God is trying to show us today.
