Promise...
Have you ever gazed upon the horizon as the first glimmer of light appeared in the eastern sky? Feather light clouds drift high above the horizon and fingers of light spread slowly across the sky. Dark blue from the west fades to pale blues and lavenders, pinks and lemon yellow as the light of dawn dances across the sky. A sliver of gold appears, bright against the horizon and all across the land, shadows lengthen and disappear as the light brightens and the sun rises into the sky.
With Easter Sunday upon us, I find myself lingering over sunrise, even on these mornings when sunrise is clouded over and comes with the gray light of dawn covered by snow clouds. I enjoy the moments of introspective review and spiritual renewal. The delicate aroma of morning coffee and the knowledge that we exist on a level that allows us to comprehend the creator bring guidance to my day.
The clouds simply remind me that even when I can't see Him, just like the sun on those cloudy mornings, God is still there, lighting up my life and giving me warmth and love for the day. My faith becomes stronger on the cloudy days, just as it is strengthened by the gloomy days I survive. I know, God is there.
Whenever I'm asked how I know, I have to answer... look around. If you can't see by the very design of nature that God exists and created this magnificent world in which we live by intelligent design, you're not looking. Through all the scientific theories there's no means by which the whole of our existence could have been an accident. Nothing in our world indicates or proves that evolution exist. Our creation must have been by design. Throughout all of history, we've proven the existence of God, and of Christ, the Son, the Word, the reality of our creation.
Is there any doubt?
Not in my life. As I travel the back roads, I understand my destiny, my fate, and my faith to be true and just.
