HIS Control

Here comes the 'weather?'
Is that the only time one notices 'elements?' Is it only during 'adverse' conditions that we come to admit or acknowledge that God is even in control of that outside our personal lives?
For some reason, I have always been fascinated with the weather. For some reason, it was always 'easier' for me to write when it was raining or cloudy. Why?
I don't have the answer yet, either.

Elements once more...
season to restore;
so alive, God's touch:
evidence, and much!
Oh, but certain be His Presence in
whatever climate be!
So alive, His living in
but ALL we feel and see!

Elements once more,
Creator God adore!
Touch Him and so live
in all that He shall give!


Again, when the elements are seen, look with more than the eyes. For there is beauty within, promises beyond, and glory throughout. Yes, I have been in tornadoes, and I can see the life therein, (albeit in retrospect.) I have most recently been in my first ice storm. Now, in the Spring, I can see the pruning that is the result of such.
Look with more than vision. I promise that you will see something positive.

I was taught by my Dad to walk with your head down is wrong... Look, see and listen... Be aware of what is around you... During the mentioned Ice Storm I sat outside on the front porch at 2am and watched and listened... It was majestic... Everything sparkled and light danced across the coated wires, then came a crack then a swooshing sound and finally a tree would hit the ground and snow/ice would fly sparkle in the light and fall silently awaiting the next tree... So much grandeur in life....
