Take 4.2 Billion Years and Think About It


Last week I sat with a friend on his farm way out in the country.  It was quiet and peaceful and as evening came we sat in his pasture facing east.  Away to the horizon a great cloud began to grow and soon covered the eastern sky and mounted the heavens thousands of feet above us.  I thought in 4.2 billion years would all human brilliance combined with time and chance think up clouds?  I looked around and a small yellow butterfly fluttered away and carried with it my thoughts to God and how I needed to build an altar.
