No Doubt
In a shooting star that
streaks across the sky
from many years gone by.
In the spontanious smiles
between two strangers
that are just passing by.
In the shrill cry of a newborn
announcing to the world
that it's time has come.
That it no longer needs
the life - sustaining
protection from mother's womb.
From the warmth of the afternoon
sun to the seductive glow of the
moon when the day is done.
A sun that is perfectly
distanced from us so we are
not frozen, nor do we burn up.
In the transforming clouds
that bring some relief from
that same blazing sun,
And furthermore gather
moisture to drop on the
crops when the time comes.
In aiding the hurricane victims,
hurting and overwhelmed,
exposed for the world to see.
In the prism of fall colors
from the maple to the birch,
showing off their leaves.
In the quiet,whispering
breeze that unfurls the stars
and stripes of "old glory."
In the beauty and royalty
of the Monarch as it dances
and flutters about in the air.
In the natural beauty of the
newly blossomed crimson
rose, with a scent to spare.
In the rarely seen rainbow
as it stretches across the sky,
a gift from heaven to us.
It is in all these things that
God is found...... and He has
a name.... it is Jesus !!!
