It’s
no secret that spring is my favorite season of the year. By the time February comes to an end it’s
hard for me to keep my thoughts on work.
Looking
out the windows I see changes in nature taking place before my eyes. To my surprise a large cluster of daffodils
emerged outside our backyard fence in a place we never planted them. How in the world did they get there?
Thanks for joining us on
Daily Favor Blog.
Moving
flowers around to put them before our eyes is a simple reminder that “Yes,
Virginia, there is a God.” It doesn’t
matter what form He used to transplant those bulbs. Whether it was through the birds, ground
critters, rain, flood waters or the wind, they were moved. Jehovah showed us that He is the Creator of
all things Who does what He wants, where and when.
Do
you realize that if God didn’t reveal Himself to us, we couldn’t know Him or His love? We would be without hope if God never showed
Himself in some way even through tiny bulbs. I think that it’s pretty amazing
all the ways He does this don’t you agree?
All
creation demonstrates His Divine Being, power and awesomeness. Springtime is a
fantastic reminder of how marvelous He really is. Watching the world change by the work of our
hands through technology is one thing, but it doesn’t compare to what Almighty God
does each and every day through us let alone nature.
Wherever
the Wind Blows
I
agree with Agur the author of Proverbs 30 when he wrote there are things in
this world that are too amazing for me to comprehend. How and why God uses things for His glory is
beyond anything I could imagine. I live
in a constant state of wonder and awe of a God that controls everything as in the
wind with mighty power. (Proverbs 30:18)
Although
at times they are not visible to us, the sun, moon and stars are present –
always! Watching a cloud roll by proves
there is wind – air and oxygen is constant to keep all creation alive. There’s nothing to see, but the evidence of
its existence is demonstrated through the results of its presence.
I’m
witness to this by the amounts of trash that blows into the yard from the back
streets behind our house. Couldn’t the
angels direct it somewhere else instead, and why is it debris from things I
don’t eat, drink or use? Why doesn’t
something useful like a fresh hundred-dollar bill get stuck in the fence
instead of a stinky diaper, plastic bags or greasy hamburger wrapper?
Regardless
to what I think about the situation, the Spirit of God is moving all around us
in ways and for reasons that only He understands.
"The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it,
but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes.
So is everyone who is born of the Spirit." (John 3:8 NKJV)
How
wonderful that we get to witness His love, grace and mercy by favoring us with
beautiful things such as “misplaced” daffodils. What else can we expect from our God of
Wonders?
There’s
a line from a song I sing that clarifies what I believe:
“Wherever
the wind blows, God is moving.
Wherever
the wind blows, God is there.
Where
there’s a breeze hope is alive
On wings
of love He will arrive,
Wherever
the wind blows.”
When
we witness such majesty, how can we deny that there must be a Higher Creative Power than
our own? We can’t, because the evidence
simply won’t let us!
