Dew Drops on a Flower Petal

Dew Drops on a Flower Petal

Have you ever gotten up early in the morning, gone outside with your cup of coffee, just so you could catch the first of everything?  The first smells and sights of the day. The air heavy with the fragrance of honeysuckle or magnolia or gardenia or jasmine, mixed with the smell of the rich earth of a freshly plowed field. To watch the wild flowers wake up as though the sun has tickled their petals to gently force them to open. And one by one, they answer the call. Then you see it ... the shimmer, the dew, appearing as tears of the night reflecting the love shared with the sun. Then think to yourself,  "my God.  My wonderful, magnificent God, has blessed me again and again  and again".  His blessings are all around us, yet so often we go unaware of His creation.  We, or more specifically I,  get so wrapped up, so involved in living life that we fail to see the wonder of life. The wonder  of something as small and as lovely as a single dew drop on the petal of a delicate flower. Another gift from our Creator for which to be thankful.
