Windows for Communication

Last week, during my lunch time I went home and went to the mailbox to check it out. A beautiful butterfly was flying around and parked on one of the flowers I have there. I could not resist taking a picture. I thought sending that picture to my wife to share the gift of nature God gave to me. But I went back to work, got busy again and did not send the picture. Four hours later I received a message from my wife, Andrea. She was just arriving at home and the same (?) butterfly was at the same spot. Andrea sent me the picture. Amazing, it was the same picture I took.

"The singing birds, the buzzing bees, the opening flower, and the budding trees are the little windows through which God permit us to commune with Him, and to see much of his glory, majesty, and power by simply lifting the curtain and looking in. I love to think of nature as unlimited broadcasting stations, through which God speaks to us every day, every hour and every moment of our lives, if we will only tune in and remain so."

(George Washington Carver  from the book Under God by Toby Mac and Michael Tait of dc Talk with WallBuilders).
