I hear so many of the older people saying that in the isolation and quiet their 'awareness' is becoming so acute. There are birds in the garden, tiny birds, that they don't recall hearing sing in such beautiful harmony and unison with one another as they are now. There is a beautiful rose bush outside their window that only weeks ago was stripped in the destructive hail storms now blooming with mass and colour that they don't recall having seen so beautiful before. And I wonder in this time of quiet and stillness in and around our homes, how God's Glory is impacting on you? Can you see it? Can you feel it? and what is God saying to you?
I read this quote from Clement of Alexandria (c150-c215)Wonder at things that are before thee, making this the first step to further knowledge.
May the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all ways.
Anne, servant of the Lord.
