Sense of wonder

It is my opinion that many of us we have lost the sense of wonder. The demands and speed of life have caused us to loose sight of the wonderful things that God has created. Jut recently Margaret called to me to come and look at a rainbow in the sky. There it was, a great big arch, full of deep colours. I was pleased that we captured that moment together and to be reminded of God’s promise to mankind. Later that day I held Luke and Jacob, our latest addition of grandchildren. Just looking at their tiny fingers and toes caused me to remembered that ‘we are fearfully and wonderfully made’.

I have decided to try and take life much slower and to take time to look again and wonder at God’s creation. To appreciate the smell of a flower, the morning mist on the hillside, moonlight, and most of all my wonderful family.

I love the song ‘God of wonders beyond our Galaxy’

Take the time to stop and look at God’s creation and say ‘Thank you’

Have a great day

John
