THE WORD – In this busy summer season, may we take a moment to STOP – and consider God’s wonders.
They are all around us in the sky-blue heavens, the creative cloud formations, fresh green grass and brilliant flowers.
They rush at us in the force of the ocean waves and call to us in the singing of the birds.
Listen for it… in the laughter of a child and the music of a street musician.
Feel it in the warmth of the sun and the coolness of a lake swim.
I challenge you to step away from the whirligig of activities and breathe in the scent of summer. Ah…God’s wonders!
When you STOP – what do notice about God’s wonders?
I moved my desk out of my bedroom and into the living room. Though I don’t think all of the house beautiful people would approve, I love it. I can watch the seasons change through the glass sliding door onto the deck. I see the hummingbirds and butterflies flitting around the gorgeous lush flowers during this time of the summer. Soon enough I will see the leaves don their colorful fall selves. So every time I pause to think…I see His wonders. God is good!

I love it – “whirligig of activities.” What an appropriate word. I get a moment of quiet every day when I walk Ruby at the park.
Thanks again for being a guest poster on my blog! We were all blessed by your words.

Sherry,
That’s what I need – a dog! I miss our mini schnauzer. We haven’t gotten another one because we are traveling too much. Enjoy your walks!
