Worship the Beauty of God's Earth

Several years ago, one of our pastors spoke about the joy and blessing of seeing God's love in little and big things in life. I still remember her words that were to the effect, "Every time you see a blossom on a flower or a leaf on a tree, remember that this is God saying, 'I love you!'' I asked one of my Bible study groups to do this kind of observing for one week to see if it made a difference in their lives. One of our members came back reporting her trip to a park and just sitting and looking at all the trees and flowers and thinking how many times God was saying, "I love you," in that one little place! She talked about what an awesome experience she had in this one little trip to the park!

Will you join me today to really look at a tree or a blossom on a flower and imagine that each of those is one of God's ways of saying "I love you?"
