Expressions of His Love

Do you ever feel like you're "walking through a desert" or that God just isn't speaking to you or making himself known to you? Sometimes I do. But when I start thinking this way, I've made it kind-of a habit to just look up at the sky - blue or gray, and gaze at the trees, the snow, the grass - even look at my own hands. And remembering that God made all of this makes my heart sing again! Then, when I remember that all of this is an expression of his INFINITE love for ME - for YOU...I can only stand amazed at SUCH a God! He made each thing beatiful in it's own way - down to the last atom. He speaks to us in many ways...the question is - are we listening? So often we get into the "daily grind"...feeling like what we do is so ordinary and useless. I often start worrying about my future when this type of thought pops into my head, and thinking that I will never be good enough, or can never make a difference being "ordinary" as I am. It's true. I can never be good enough at anything to make a difference just how I am. It is only when I realize my need for a Sovereign Savior and surrender to His will that I can touch lives. I pray that God will make me a beautiful expression of Jesus' love to others - like He has made the mountains, the trees, the flowers, the animals beautiful expressions of his love. He made my heart, and it is only He who can make it an expression of His. Selah. ~Lady Tai
