Sitting here
in my quiet place
under the trees
it's chilly this morning
with a gentle breeze
the sun is beaming
light
warmth
hope
renewal
what if today is my last?
would I feel like I lived it?
did I change what I could
and accept what I could not change?
how often do we rush and run
right past ourselves in the process?
when is the last time you found
a quiet spot outside and just listened
tuned out the world's noise
and tuned into God's creation?
hear the birds banter
a cricket singing an aria
see a breeze cajole the leaves
into a flirty dance
see a dove fly by with twigs in its beak
a caterpillar passing by
smell the earth
and how every facet is there
to connect another facet to
create a prismatic gem
feel tiny in its vastness in a
" He made this for me"
" He made me for this"
kind of way
the sun could just rise and set
as a yellow ball in the sky
but it doesn't
He uses it to paint the heavens
for our eyes to behold in
glorious golds
opulent oranges
ravishing reds
in swirls and lines
no two the same
the clouds sculpted
and set in motion
take the time to
make the time
to make each moment count
as you survey your world
with new eyes
start seeing God
in everything because
He is
and start living like
your life depends on it because
it does
Slow down.
Enjoy the journey.
