The title is translated "Thank you, Powerful God". While in Mozambique, we sang this sweet song together as a team often as we ended our time together in prayer each day. The tune runs through my mind frequently and especially in times when I am experiencing the amazing presence of God in nature. Today I snapped this photo of one of my Morning Glories reaching for the sun. It seems as fall approaches, the flowers bloom with an intensity reserved for their final fling before the crisp frost that ends their brief tenure here on earth. Perhaps we should all bloom as if tomorrow is the frost~with everything we've got for as long as we last. Thank you, powerful God for today!

I enjoy the idea of blooming as if tomorrow is the frost. Great analogy. Thanks for sharing. Helen
ReplyDeleteLove the beauty and challenge of your words. I see the same thing in my daylilies on the patio. I have to cut them back today and I hate it. I know it's what's best but I would have summer last all year if it were up to me. Moving into a new season...that's God's design. I think that's happening to us as well...you and me...great retreat last weekend. Can't wait to see what God has planned next. -W
