REFLECTIONS

Can you make an intricate flower

Or perhaps a beautiful leaf?

Can you comfort a bear robbed of its cubs

Are you able to bring relief?

Look at the ant as it carries

Ten times its weight it can…

An eagle will drop its young from great heights

To teach them to fly on demand.

Look at the beautiful wood pecker

On a tree as it pecks away;

A robust sturdy beak that pecks like a drill

Thousands of times a day.

Look at the stars in the galaxy

Light years away and millions worth;

They look like a twinkle in the sky

Some seven quadrillion times the size of earth.

Let’s ponder on the variety of fruit

And the succulent taste of each;

Our water from heaven sustains our lives

And all’s provided within our reach.

Since disorder cannot create order

As the law of thermodynamics mandates;

A gush of roaring wind through a junk yard

Never a grand car can it create.

As our intelligence is used in all things

Let’s fathom God’s brilliant ways,

And how uniquely He’s fashioned us

To make wise decisions every day.

All things have a grand purpose in life

Including both you and me;

This earth is our temporary dressing room

As we prepare for eternity.
