This past weekend I went to Yosemite with a couple of friends for the first time. We hiked, road bikes, and were constantly struck by the awe of it all. My friend would often say that there was no way that this could have been made by accident. It got me thinking. The earth wasn't made by accident. It was carved and created down to the atom. Every atom and even electron was placed a certain way from the beginning to form this beautiful masterpiece. If Jesus took everything down to atomic placement into consideration, then just think of the consideration God took in placing YOU where you are and in what time period you are in. YOU are here for a reason, for many reasons, down to the atom. You are here to make a difference and to enhance the lives of everything and person on this beautiful, wonderful and awe inspiring earth. So go forth and do what only YOU were meant to do here at the place where you stand, in this time period! Make a difference in the lives of others and everything around you. You are needed more than you know...Down to the Atom!
Thank you for this post it is just the reminder I needed to here. It is hard to remember sometimes that I am the only one that can do what I do. Be me. Beautiful Post.
ReplyDeleteThanks for that post, Mary. I think that alot of times, especially in our writing we think other people could do it better. But the truth is that no one could do exactly what we do or think exactly as we think. We are each unique and should celebrate our differences.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the reminder to just be myself, and that I am actually here for a reason.
ReplyDeleteDoused in a chaotic life of children, callings, responsibilities and such, it can be so easy to let slip the small and simple things. Thank you so much for your thoughts!
ReplyDeletePS--small and simple things like a posie from my 3-year old is always so sweet to bring me back!
I love Yosemite. It's right in my backyard. :) Well, not really, but we're close. We go often. It is beautiful. It is surely evidence to me as well, of God's existence.
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome post Mary! Thank you! I truly believe what you say is true and I'm so grateful for the reminder... especially today! Jenni
ReplyDeleteGreat post Mary :) It's a much needed reminder.
ReplyDeleteI've always wanted to go to Yosemite. This post has me thinking I've got to find a way. And yes, the uniqueness of each of us and every single thing on this earth...
