Summer moment
Today, as I was pondering resurrection and it's trans formative power, I noticed out the window a beautiful butterfly flitting around my garden. I stopped to look at it for a few moments. My first thought is "Maybe it's a sign, butterflies kind of symbolize new life" and I asked God if he wanted to show me something. My second thought was to run and get my camera, because that's what I do. I love trying to capture beautiful moments, as if somehow I could hold on to their preciousness this way. The problem with that is, a) the picture rarely captures it as beautiful as I am experiencing it, and b) often the moment is lost, as I go get the camera. So I felt as if God whispered, "just watch, and enjoy it" And so I did. The moment was beautiful, and that was enough. And isn't that why we love summer so much? Those quiet, beautiful little moments of creation, that feels like God bringing us a prettily wrapped package just from him. It was nice.
