I sat outside and took a deep breath. The crispness of the evening air was soothing...cooling...calming. A car roars by and I hear the distant noise of traffic and pipes rolling in a not so distant factory. Man made noise and creations assault my senses but soon are drowned out by nature. This is a choice. This is my choice. Almost invisible drops of heavenly moisture dot my skin as I take in the beauty of a near by tree. I notice a gentle breeze russle the leaves and am mesmerised by asymmetric movement. The variety of shades of green and in the size of branches and shapes of the leaves. The wind subsides for a moment and the movement of the leaves slow to a stop. "Come back and dance" I can almost hear the leaves cry out to the wind. Again the wind blows and the dance begins again. Caressing the leaves and commanding them to move. Swirling and bending in a beautiful dance of nature. A peaceful calm comes again and again the wind begins to move the leaves.
And so it is with Your Spirit Lord... moving with in me...dancing with mine, allowing my soul to rejoice in your presence. Feeling your peace in the stillness. Rejoicing in the movement of Your Spirit.
How great Thou Art.
