Morning Pause

“Look! Look! It’s so beautiful!” Her excitement was contagious. I was actually running on time for the meeting, but…I couldn’t help myself. “WOW!” It was all I could say. “The meeting is just going to have to wait!” The next thing you know I was looking for a door. I couldn’t wait to get out there. Nature has a way of declaring the Presence of God. I quickly walked out. The fresh smell of early morning filling me with the goodness of God’s love. I took in a deep breath. Then again…I just had to Savor…After all, isn’t that why God created it all? For us to enjoy? How often are we rushing past beauty to get to our next destination? I’m so thankful for the woman at the door that stood in wonder, taking it all in. And then declaring it, so I could experience it too! I actually wrote about savoring in my book Encounter God. It’s one of those choices I have to make on a daily basis. To Pause and Savor the goodness of God!
