I was walking around a suburban neighbourhood and noticed a most fabulous paling fence. Someone had shaped the top of the palings to a point and painted them brightly to look like coloured pencils. The effect was great and made me stop, look, smile and take a photo. Whoever had done it had turned something ordinary and boring into a delight.
Some things need beautifying before they will be noticed but others like our God stand entirely on their own merit without adornment. We see him in the beauty that surrounds us, the colourful birds and flowers, the majestic mountains, amazing sunsets and a myriad of other beautiful things that make us stop, look, smile and take photos.
Lord your creations are amazing, and we thank you that you have filled our world with wonders. When we need it Lord, please remind us of the way to care for your treasures.
