All For Us

Squirrels are so much fun. Andrew, my toddler, and I enjoy sitting in front of our window and watching the squirrels in the trees. We will spend up to 20 minutes looking for them and spotting them. As I reflected on this past time that we share, I realized that God's creation was made with us in mind.

Whether it is a beautiful sunset, a majestic waterfall, a volcano, or the millions of stars in the sky, God's fingerprints are everywhere. When we look at the next sunset, a baby's smile, or a squirrel playing in the trees, may we remember to give thanks to the Creator who has given us all this beauty to behold and enjoy.

"He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together." - Colossians 1:15-17 (NIV)

"...All things are yours, whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or the present or the future - all are yours, and you are of Christ, and Christ is of God." - 1 Corinthians 3:21-23 (NIV)
