He Went That A ‘Way

Raindrops keep falling on my head… yes it’s raining outside! And having to be in it has just reminded me of my last post and looking to the sky to see God’s glory. But the rain also showed me something else.

We can’t completely focus on the sky and outside ourselves. He has never left us; he’s in the world right now he is in the chair your sitting in, the trees outside, and even the worlds and the computer your looking at now; but most of all he’s in your hair, your hands, your feet, your nose, your mind, your elbows, your armpits, and your heart. He’s in everything. We can sit and see god’s creations all around us. We can sit and watch the sky above us move and change, but we can also look in the mirror and see God’s likeness. We can see beauty, tenderness, and compassion. We can see careful craftsmanship and a Love for us his sons and daughters.

We can look around and see God in some many people in so many ways that it’s astonishing to think He can be so creative, and perfect and yet we can all be so different. It’s also amazing how you can look at yourself and even if there are things you don’t like or aren’t please with, they make you who you are, who God made and loves. Maybe you have freckles or a mole on your neck, or you’re bald and you don’t like being that way, but maybe God wanted you that way, not everyone can look exactly how they want, or we’d all look very similar, and I believe diversity is a Gift from God. And the little things we perhaps don’t like can also teach us that were not perfect, that’s why were human, but we die to this world and then it’s not our human bodies that really matter anyway, it’s the spiritual wellbeing that is the most important. And you are unique and have a special gift that no one else has that you can use to share your spiritual wellbeing, to those still worried if his or her hair looks perfect.

So sit and stare at the sky, take in his beauty, but when the rains start coming down don’t forget to look inside and rejoice in being different and unique, because God lives inside of you, not just all around you.
