The daily life is a kindness we can give ourselves. We often waste or live our life one day at a time. A new day is a great beginning, a chance to explore, build, create, invent, rest, write, marvel, and wander. “The earth is the LORD’s, and everything in it.” This is an invitation to know Him intimately. His unfathomable glories can be explored, can be a daily living. Coming to our senses is a pathway to living each day, looking begins the journey, looking to see. Our son and daughter-in-law gave us these flowers. This morning while reading I paused a moment to look at them. In that moment I realized their absolute declaration of God IAM. In a world of time and chance, the kindness of flowers would never be. A moment's ponder of a daisy brings with it a testimony of kindness unknown from the hands of man. Oh, Who is this God who loves us so, a flower, a delving into the depths of unfathomable; an utter kindness, bringing us closer to knowing some twinkling of the unimaginable.
I often feel as if I am trudging through life, waist-deep in sludge forcing myself to live. Tasks laid down to accomplish, do this, do that. Will spring ever come? Will green finally bring color to what is now all grey. Will I ever be pain-free; feel the warmth of a body I do not feel? Oh, the hikes I would take, the mountains I would climb, the paths less taken I would take.
