Since hearing Pastor's message on Sunday, I have been making a mental effort to look up more often. To slow down and smell the roses, if you will. I think God loves to impress us. Think about it: shooting stars, sunsets, rainbows, the smell of rain, these are just a few of the "extras" He created. He didn't have to make a sunset so colorful, or a star shoot across the sky like fireworks. He didn't have to let rain smell so good or flowers smell at all. I think He did it just to impress us. To put smiles on our faces. To delight us. This world He has created is truly amazing. It is impossible to look up and not praise God for His mighty hand. It is impossible to see, really see, His creation and not stand amazed at His handiwork. So make a it a habit to look up a little more often.

That was awesome, Michelle! You're right-God has a purpose in everything-sometimes we don't slow down to notice the wonderful intricacies of his creation. I picture this little girl, in a field on a warm and sunny spring day, picking a flower and then smelling its delightful aroma with a sweet smile of surprise; and God watching her. He is actually taking notice and saying to her "Yep, I know!" :)
