Majestic Morning

Cuddled up with my Bible, journal, favorite pen, and a pink coffee cup I sit in the backyard in the swing Pastor Jerry gave us before he moved. Nestled under the canopy of giant leaves and blossoms, sitting in the presence of the Father, his love overwhelms me. As I thank him for the beauty of the morning he chooses to amaze and delight me! As the rising sun peaks over the rooftop the grass begins to glisten with the silk of webs. These iridescent ribbons hang also from the trees catching blossoms in midair. A gentle breeze crosses the yard and the curtain of suspended flowers freely sways back and forth. The chatter of birds comes from above me, the hoot of an owl from the neighboring yard. I sat there in His glory for 30 minutes listening to his creation watching his majesty. The sound of a truck in the alley woke me to my responsibilities of the day, the time had come for me to go in and make breakfast. I gathered my things and prepared to go inside when I realized these beautiful webs that blanketed the ground were filled with spiders. With out this realization I could have stayed in that swing for hours instead I ran across the yard, taking as few steps as possible as to reduce the possibility of my feet touching the arachnids. As I entered the house I found another gift from the Father: three beautiful children freshly waken and ready to eat. Thank you God!
