lately .. i've been noticing the little things.
yesterday, me and my dashing little brother (he's 7) decided to go outside and play.
the weather felt more like august then december, but despite the heat, the breeze was lovely. so, we spread out a huge blanket, and brought every board game from his closet out there. we had it all. snacks, water, the beatles playing on the cd player (which he knew every word to the beatles 1's album, and THAT made me smile).
we had a blast. laughing, singing, playing. have you ever SEEN the beauty of the Creator?

i could see Him yesterday. in my brother's beautiful blue eyes, in the fall leaves and their colors,in the cool breeze blowing through trees.
i currently work at a daycare during the day. i help out with toddlers in the mornings,and i spend my afternoons in the nursery.with newborns.no matter how tired, or how frustrated,or ready to go home i am, i can't help but smile anytime my eyes catch theirs. i can SEE Him.
the innocence, joy, purity, beginning, vulnerability, and precious tenderness.
everything around me is created. breathed. thought of. considered. i feel His love in the breeze, and see His affections in the rising sun.how could i not yearn for the Uncreated One? the One who came from nothing at all, yet is FULL of substance and all that is good .. and how could i not love His Creation, in which i am, in fact, a part of?
I see You. I see Your creation.I see Your love.
I choose to SEE the little things. To take in and absorb all that You have gracefully put in my path to reveal Your intense desire for me. and I am extremely grateful.
