God Bless,
We should all know this but many times we fail to realize that most human beings are constantly running and rushing. Each day we rush from place to place as if we were contestants in some type of race to see who is the fastest. On my way to work I could easily see how everyone is constantly rushing; it doesn't matter what time of the day it is, there is a constant rush, a race against the clock. Many times even as we walk, we may bump into someone but all we do is walk even faster without any apology; many times we actually just expect them to apologize.
With all the rushing back and forth, we rarely see the beautiful but yet "simple" things that are constantly happening around us. Birds singing, an elderly person's smile, the tender and curious way a child looks around, the sound of the rainfall, a sunset, etc. The same way we take these things for granted at times, many of us as Christians just say a prayer "rushing" and all we are doing is limiting the time that already belongs to God. We ask him for things, we talk and talk like parrots but, ¿do you think we are really waiting for his response, are we really taking our time to hear God's voice? Today, I encourage all of us to make some time in our busy schedules and just enjoy all the beautiful things God is constantly doing all around us. Focus a little and just hear his voice, look at his powerful hand move in our lives; his love is in constant action. We at times, do not appreciate something as simple as being able to read this message; how many blind people wish they could read? How many wish they could see the sunrise or the sunset? Some of us at times, simply devalue the beautiful works of our creator. Let's learn to delight ourselves in all of the gifts God has granted us...all of them!
Have a blessed day filled with all of his blessings!

Psalm 104:24-25 "O Lord, how many and varied are Your works! In wisdom have You made them all; the earth is full of Your riches and Your creatures. Yonder is the sea, great and wide, in which are swarms of innumerable creeping things, creatures both small and great."
