The Tulip

When I was at OBU I was sitting along the fountains, listening to the water trickle and the aroma was fresh of grass and dew. 
..the sun started rising over the hills..
..and in the midst of God's nature, I was thinking about the worries of my life, and the stresses of my tomorrows....
And when that sun poured out over the hills, its rays were captured and ingulfed inside this simple red tulip sitting right next to me, keeping me company.

The glory of God, present in such a petit, simple, small, flower.. so small, I leaned forward to take a closer look, and as I studied it, I could trace each vain with my finger.  Such intricate design and rich color to such a simple flower!

Simple, yet taking a closer look ...so beautiful.

Don't belittle the little things... they are greater if you look closer.
Being filled with His Glory the Tulip revealed itself to the grandest.
You also be filled.

He waiting for you to drop your worries to His feet.  Watch Him spill sun's glory and splendor into that tulip just for you.
