just for today . . .visible grace . . .6/4/10

Dear Holy Friends,   Most of you know that I see God more in nature than anything else. I think in my lifetime I have written more poems about nature than anything else. But how can someone look to creation and not see the Creator? It baffles me. Because His graceful hand shows us the meaning of Grace in all he created.   In his Graceful Grip, Chandra   Visible Grace   Without sunshine and rain plants cannot grow. Animals care for their young but also let them go. The sun rises and also sets both every day. In all of nature, good and bad God shows us the way. Life hold both sun and rain days of joy, times of woe. There's no freedom from trials but His love never lets us go. His hand weaves the beauty of nature everywhere His grace we see. It's most visible when invisible inside a heart He just set free.   ~Chandra Lynn Smith~
