Stop and smell the roses sometime.
I had a rare time of reflection this morning as I strolled in the park next to my school for a quiet prayer. The sun was out, and the sky was blue. The birds were singing, and the leaves were sprouting from the trees. And I reflected upon the words I read this morning for my devotional:
The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.Day to day pours out speech,and night to night reveals knowledge.Psalm 19:1-2It truly is beautiful this world that God has made. And if this side of heaven has so much beauty, how much more the other side? And if His creation has this much beauty, then how much more the Creator Himself?
I also saw God’s beauty yesterday at our church service. When a group of diverse people come together for worship and fellowship, I see a glimpse of the kingdom of heaven. I feel so privileged to be part of such a group of people God put together. It is joy to work for such a body of Christ!
In your busy time of work and taking care of family, take time to meditate. Go ahead. Take a stroll alone in the park. Take in the rest that God wants to give you. Put all your cares upon Him for He cares for you.
