Witness

Yesterday I saw God. I saw God in the face of a child. In the eyes of grown men. In the embrace of a friend. In the glow of my husband. All…Skipping. Running. Resting. Excited & joyful. Tender & strong. Men of all ages. Young. Old. In-between. All of them, little boys & men of strength. Unwavering. Speechless & shouting. Hoarse & ever so clear. On their knees & scaling the highest mountain. God was there. Brother and sister. Two souls connected as one. Mother and daughter. Heart sisters. All joined together. Magic. Holy. Eternal. The eyes of a child. Yesterday I saw God. Amen.

Thought I'd check Google Reader one last time before heading out for my walk with Piper. So glad I did because I was able to read your beautiful meditation. Thank you. I will look for God in the creatures and plants great and small along our usual walking route.

And will remember that God is there to be seen, even if sometimes she fades into the background.

I love your perspective on things, Lucy - and reading about your Faith Walk through life. There is divinity in even the smallest of matters - if we choose to see it. You SO rock!
