The soft wind blows across my face

For a moment life couldn’t be better

The sun is shining, but it’s not hot

All my worries slowly escape

The coconut fragrance from the

Suntan lotion still lingers on my skin

It makes me feel like nothings missing

When I know so much is

The lake is teaching me peace

While the birds are showing me grace

The wind is preaching love

While the clouds assure me of what’s coming

Nature is wrapping me in her arms

God is holding me close

How can I worry when I look around?

God is orchestrating it all…for me.

I went to Lake Bonny Park for this assignment, and I stayed there for at least 40 minutes. What a great time my small group of good friends and I had at lake Bonny. We went during our regular class time and it turned out to be perfect. There is not many times in the week where I can relax- really relax and enjoy silence. My dorm is so loud and my life is so busy I cherish moments of silence. The Lord speaks in silence, the Lord speaks through nature. Although I was with my friends as I was laying on the dock I felt as though it was just me. I looked up at the sky, the clouds were moving slowly, the birds spread their wings and moved so smoothly. I don’t know how to explain it but I know that the Lord created us for moments like that. When we do nothing but enjoy His creation and worship Him in adoration. It is hard not to give glory to God when you appreciate nature. We took note of the unique reptiles and insects crawling around, each unique, each with a purpose. It was weird to think that God is orchestrating all of it. God made that insect and knew it would crawl past me that day. He knew that I would think of him when it did and He knew He would get the glory. It’s all for Him. Something about the way God works, the methods in which He chooses to comfort us. His ways are far beyond us, and His thoughts are far greater than ours. We are left here only to gaze into the sky and scan the ocean in wonder, in amazement, in awe of our Creator. And best of all…He loves us. The Creator of the universe loves us.
