Do You See God...

Do you see God in every circumstance of your life, every aspect of creation? Do you love Him no matter what He brings into your life? Do you thank Him for everything, even if it is not something you would have chosen?

Do you thank Him for bright flowers that cheer our paths?


Do you see Him in the mighty trees, lifting their leafy hands toward heaven?


Do you thank Him for the little birds, bringing so much joy to us?

Do you see Him in the snow and the wool, a sign of His purity?


Do you thank Him for the summer day and the sunshine?


Do you see Him in each creature, created delicately and ever so carefully?


Do you thank Him for blue skies, fluffy white clouds, and the green of summer?


Do you thank Him for anything, no matter what it is and see Him in everything?
I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth. --Psalm 34:1

This was just beautiful, Anna! And what poignant questions you asked . . . may we never forget to thank the Lord for all that He has blessed us with!

Thank you, Sarah! This was the overflow of some thoughts I have been having recently and I would agree that the Lord has blessed us with so much that we can be thankful for!
