Have you seen God today?

A friend of mine has a habit of asking this question. I think it is a very good thing to contemplate. Where did I see God today, in what situation? Not only that... how about if I live each day looking for God throughout the day. I think that would really shed a different light on a lot of things. Maybe I would hear His subtle whisper then. I think that we often miss what God is saying to us simply because we don't listen carefully enough, becaues we don't look hard enough... or maybe we quite frankly just look in the wrong places. Sometimes I think we look for what we WANT to hear or see. God doesn't always do things the way we expect or want Him to. I think that most of the time He does things in ways we don't expect Him to. At least with me, He has a way of plesantly surprising me, even in the little things.

So, where did I see God today? I saw God in His beautiful creation. I went for a run and noticed how all the trees have turned green with leaves in only 2 weeks. Other trees are covered in flowers in different colors. Nature is coming back to life after a long winter... God is amazing.
