Don’t Miss the Intricacy

Look closely at the fine details of the balloon flower; or the spider web outside your door; or the layers of rock in the mountain side. Amazing that such small features are part of such a beautiful whole – and they don’t show up until you look closely. It wouldn’t take much to overlook. As a matter of fact, most folks do just that. They overlook the fundamental pieces of finely crafted intricacies that comprise the whole and give the object its beauty and completeness. God has not applied that characteristic to just creation. God has also made every moment full of intricacies and details that fill it out. Your daily moments are full of them – details, fine points, intricate features that are easily missed by the person who does not have eyes to see it, or just doesn’t care. But it’s in those intricacies that you will find the care, the patience, the love of God. Every moment is laced with emotions, consequences, nuances, responses, and influence. Do you see them? Do you care? I hope so. When you let Christ walk with you in every moment you face, you will become more and more sensitized to those details. And you will appreciate them and the moment much more. Mostly, you will see the love of God in it all. And you will be able highlight it for others around you too. God’s amazing creativity has given wholeness to your moments – built on fine intricacies and details. Don’t miss the intricacy of the day.
