As I look at the flowers, imported from who knows where (certainly not here in Texas) - I marvel at the luxury we have to enjoy God's handiwork. We just order and they are delivered. We pay a price, but the joy in the beauty of it all is worth every cent.
Is that how we view God? A luxury to behold? We don't have to order Him in (in fact we can't). He is not some foreign "being" who just appears when we call or order. He is ever-present - omnipresent, priceless, beautiful, sovereign and ready to show His splendor to any who would look.
He brings joy at getting a good look at Him in His Word - His faithfulness and character. He graciously displays His beauty in His perfect character. He fills our senses with His the sweet aroma of His faithfulness.
I'm so grateful for the beauty that surrounds us in the nature He created. I am grateful of His generosity in sharing this beauty with us. I am grateful for His beautiful splendor revealed in His handiwork, His character and His generosity.
How do you view God? Someone to come at our beckon call, to provide beauty on demands or someone you can love to be with because of who He is?
Thank you Lord for allowing us to see your beauty in nature and in your character.
