Yesterday, one of my children was arguing with me about wearing shorts to school. This morning, I awoke to six inches of fresh snow on the ground.
The weather can turn on a dime, especially here in Alberta. And it has been one of the most odd winters I’ve ever experienced.
There are some things that simply speak to me of God’s power. Mountains, for example. It’s impossible for me to see a mountain and not think of God and His wonders. Tornadoes – same thing. But I’ve never really ‘seen’ God in the random weather patterns I’ve grown so used to. Until this morning.
It wasn’t the snow. Nor the rapid drop in temperature. But as I sat in my little red chair during sunrise, I was completely awestruck by a flash of lightning and a booming clap of thunder.
God. The One who created the earth and everything on it. The One who commands the wind and snow. Who can turn the weather on a dime. He can even bring a thunderstorm in the midst of a snowstorm.
God. The God who is in control of my life, my breath, and my being. His power knows no bounds.
Wow.
What things make you see and experience God?
