As I sit here gazing out my window, Father, I am in awe of all You have done! Some may ask why? My eyes behold the grass of our lawn, neatly trimmed, the cattails in the drainage ditch across the road, the field, with its crop of soybeans just coming out of the ground, a line of trees thick and green, and a sky of gray, dense with clouds. Green, brown and gray – no vibrant colors, no obvious wildlife, no flowing streams…just a relatively mundane scene but, Father, Your hand is behind it all!
We can have some influence on it but ultimately You are in charge. We can plant, we can trim but in the end, You cause the plants to grow and multiply. We can make educated guesses as to what the weather might be – and sometimes we get it right – but can we remove a single cloud from the sky?
You are my Creator, the Creator of everything I see! Nothing exists beyond Your will. Every intricate piece of this world was designed by You. Nothing is mundane to You. You are a God of complexity and I am the beneficiary of the details! Praise Your Holy Name, oh my God!
