I was
walking down the street the other day
When I
walked past a beautiful yellow flower
It was
so beautiful, it took my breath away
Gazing
upon it, I could have stood there for
hours.
Then suddenly, it dawned on me
This is a creation of God; nature's
beauty
I had been blind to this, I couldn't
see
I had admired many things, but not the
things that were free.
I
desired many worldly things, things I had to
have for fun
cars, nice homes, money and and
even power
I never took the time to stop and
really gaze upon God's creation
The world had
blinded me to the wonder of a beautiful
flower.
But
this day, that yellow flower broke the world's
hold on me
and as I gazed upon this beautiful
yellow flower
I realized I was surrounded by
God's wonderful creations...I could see
The
worldly things cannot compare with His mighty
power.
I
still think about fancy cars and homes and
things so nice,
But when I walk on soft
grass, or gaze upon a beautiful flower
I
shall never forget God's place in my life and
never take for granted
Nature's beauty, and
God's awesome power.
