Day 30

 

Nothing demonstrates God's power more to me than the weather. Just take a look outside. When the sun is  shining beautifully upon us, we are witness to His greatest Creation called Earth. Just look around at all the wonderous things He has made for us to enjoy.

 
 The same applies to snowstorms. I love to sit by my window and watch the snow blanket everything in it's sight. It's almost as if all the ugliness of the world is covered with the purity of the white snow. Isn't that the same when we are forgiven and God provides us with new clean clothes to wear? 
 

Spring brings along with it rain. Don't we all know it? Just the other night, majority of people were experiencing thunderstorms, strong winds and threatening twisters. We could feel the ferocity of the storm. The lightening flashing across the sky, so beautiful and scary at the same time.

 

When my children were very little, I would read this book with them. It was a book that had no words, just pictures. It was called Peter Spier's Rain. The entire book consisted of a storyline that dealt with how things looked after a rainfall. This little child would go exploring after a storm.

 

No matter how many times we looked at that book, it was always fresh and new. They would find something they haven't seen the night before. Isn't that how the weather is every single day? It is never the same. It is powerful, yet beautiful. We should fear it, but also admire and respect it.

 

This is why I loved the window when I first laid my eyes upon it. I loved it, because I knew I would enjoying watching the day unfold and close each day. My energy for the day came from what I would see from it.

 

I often wondered why the elderly loved to sit and just watch people pass by. It's not really the people as much as God's Handiwork. They're basking in God's Glory and Power.

 

I believe it's an age thing, because ever since I turned fifty, I want to do the same.

Have a Blessed day everyone.
