Welp, I guess those cookies last night "for the feast day" still went to a good cause (ie: my stomach).
Anyway, moving on to a less embarrassing topic...
Insects.
Despite how it may have looked, I wasn't doing nothing--I was listening to the symphony. Because there were a couple of times when I had to stop writing, just so I could sit there and listen. The song was so beautiful; it was a special gift from God which I was blessed to hear. These kinds of experiences truly show me how amazing God is. Not only did He create the whole world and the people in it, but He created insects like the cicada. And together, we can all glorify God.
There are not cicadas everywhere I go, but nonetheless, do I take time to listen to the symphony of the world that surrounds me? Do I thank God for the gift of this musical beauty?Let the earth bless the Lord,praise and exalt him above all forever.Mountains and hills, bless the Lord;praise and exalt him above all forever.Everything growing on earth, bless the Lord;praise and exalt him above all forever.You springs, bless the Lord;praise and exalt him above all forever.Seas and rivers, bless the Lord;praise and exalt him above all forever.You sea monsters and all water creatures, bless the Lord;praise and exalt him above all forever.All you birds of the air, bless the Lord;praise and exalt him above all forever.All you beasts, wild and tame, bless the Lord;praise and exalt him above all forever.All you mortals, bless the Lord;praise and exalt him above all forever.~Dan 3:74-82
