Being out in Nature we are reminded ‘everywhere’ we go’ .. the Beauty, the outstanding glory of our Creator. Romans 1 tells us this … 'paraphrased’ .. when you look up and out’ you simply have no excuse not to believe ’ that there is a glorious designer behind this ! …. Is there a glory like the morning sky? Perhaps not until you see the storm sky’.. or the sun telling us ‘it’s farewell prayers ..as it dips away only to rise across the horizon for the other side of the world.
Although many an Artist has attempted it’s glory’ no one can capture the scene every second in its change… how it calms our soul knowing we have the Creator of our souls sitting on the circle of earth. Isaiah 40:22 …'He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth , and it's people are like grasshopers.
The perfectly Blue skies’ , then The Clouds dance , with multiple shapes … some wispy others appearing as pillars .. burly , ready to burst in on us… but wait , one more look ..changing..
The beauty of the desert ..blooms’ that refuse to wilt in the intense heat .. the beauty of a new born babe’ …
I ponder this’ .. there is so much he has given us to see…'his handiwork' , we all live under the same sky.
Although we know about the breakage … all that was broken in the garden… in us, and around us …. we can’t see or should I say we often miss the 'unseen' ...the ‘dark shadows, the pain in our sister and brothers eyes’ their hunger and thirst of soul… we can’t see ‘the inner being’ of her deep valley’_ her personal desert_ the struggle’ the trial’ , the unfulfilled desires, the hiding…behind the cheerie smile….
Lord this is my prayer_ help me to see U_ to see the unseen … your image … in my sons and my daughters, my granddaughters and grandsons, my sister and brother, my mothers and fathers, my friends and foes, my neighbors and Church , the entire public square we deal with dally…
Help us to remember everyone is carrying something …because ‘the unseen’ fact of sin’ it lingers still … a rebel heart although seen accurately by U alone we see how it insists on its ‘own way’ this to we give to U’the Unseen One’.. even in hearts that belong to U the struggle is real’ ..the grief of... ‘if only’ … oh but so is faith in U ‘thank God U are here’ with us … theres is so much ‘that is ‘unseen’ …but still U allow us to C a heart bent to U and your way… how we need your grace to step out into the pool of faith , daily, to believe ,….to look 2 U .. and not to created things ‘to meet our deepest needs. … U are our True Hope we can rest in U._ U alone are in our efforts to love ,,only U can connect hearts to love one another.… We depend on U… rely upon U trust U.. to open wide hearts that are longing for truth … help us all to remember U have all the grace we need to turn to U with all our heart . ..
Thank you for the promise of Eternity with you’ where all that was broken’… will be restored fully to your original plan and purposes for us.
