Yesterday I spent the day on the roof of the house, pulling up the old tin and putting down new tin. The old tin had lasted 95 years! Throughout the day I enjoyed cloud gazing. The cloud formations were just amazing. Marbled patterns, whispy strands, fluffy cotton wool, luminous grey threatening to rain etc. I just enjoyed the feeling that I was close to my Creator. Afterwards I commented that our God is so amazing. How did He think all this up? Before there was anything, there was God. And He decided to create. How did He possibly imagine what to create?

Towards the end of the day I caught my knee on the corner of a piece of tin. Immediately I felt a jab of pain. It was short lived. God gave us the gift of pain to alert us to take care of ourselves. I checked it out and realised it was a surface cut, so I kept on working. Later when I was having a shower, I noticed how it had run and then stopped. God in His wisdom created our blood to clot so that we will not bleed to death from a cut. Yet it is the blood pumping through my veins that gives me life. Physical life. It is because of another blood that I have spiritual life. I have the right to enter into God's family. Little me. Huge amazing God, had His Son shed His blood so that I might become His child.

These are truly amazing things!
