I Saw God Today in the Actions of My Son

High winds, blowing leaves, rain. That's been a constant for several weeks. Due to the weather, I noticed that our back gutters were stopped up. Water ran over the tops, and nothing flowed through the downspout.

Yesterday our son came over and climbed up the ladder to discover the "spiny balls" from our sweet gum tree in the front yard had collected and fallen into the downspout to create a huge blockage. Since hubby had riveted the downspout pieces together, there was no way to get inside and clear it.

With perseverance and even a walk on the roof, our son managed to clear everything out. He worked hard and diligently to help us. Once done, he then proceeded to knock down some huge hornet nests that had been built last year.

And, even though he'd worked a long hard shift at work before coming over, he never complained, but instead graced us with his beautiful smile.

I Saw God Today in a Good Friday Rainstorm

Good Friday...today we are having rainstorms, a two-fold blessing. The rain will kiss the earth, bringing forth beautiful flowers, a sign of hope for the new beginning of spring. The storms allow me to stay indoors and reflect on the sacrifice made on the cross which provided my and your salvation!

I Saw God Today -- in Our Church Service

What a glorious celebration in church today! It is always so touching when our preacher is moved to tears in reflecting on the loving sacrifice of Jesus. No greater gift has ever been given to the world than when God gave his Son to die for our sins.

I look up at the beautiful blue sky today and feel God's merciful hands stretched out hugging all His children. In His eyes, I see a deeper love than can ever be imagined. What a humbling, healing vision.

I Saw God Today When I Looked Out My Window

This morning I woke up expecting to see overcast skies and rain. How uplifted I felt when I saw the sun shining through my window!

The grass is a beautiful carpet of green, trees are budding, the pear tree is in bloom, hostas are spreading their beautiful foliage, day lillies are popping up, and the rose bushes are green with leaves.

Just two weeks ago, everything looked dreary and dead, but God's hand has kissed the land once again bringing hope for a new beginning.
