We have a bird bath with a cement bird in the centre, the bath is positioned under a crepe myrtle that has beautiful pink flowers. The other day I was inside looking out and realised that the cement coloured ornamental bird had a pink beak. Being quite observant, I was surprised that I had never noticed that before. I went to have a closer look and found that one of the flowers from the tree had fallen perfectly into place on the bird’s beak – how amusing, I thought.
Some things aren’t quite what they seem to be, and closer examination can reveal the truth. You know, regardless of how long and closely we look at God we will never see any of his gloss come off. There is no facade, he is true through and through.
Lord you are a genuine God, pure and true, loving and giving, full of grace and forgiveness. We thank you that you have invited us into relationship with you.
