The sunrise creep across the sky
in softest pastel pinks
and shades of lavender,
overlaid with gilt,
before bursting into fire
from the golden ball
that climbs steadily upward
till it perches in place
to play peek-a-boo
with the clouds,
Then I know . . .
Eternal God is present.
When I see
crystal drops of cleansing showers
patter softly to the earth below,
sheets of driving rain
pound submissive trees
as they bow before
the creator of all things,
or snowflakes drifting down
to cover dinginess of winter
with powder of purest white,
then I know . . .
Eternal God is present.
When I see
mountains crest so high
they disappear into the sky,
oceans, swarming with fish,
stretch endlessly
as they connect
continent to continent
with never-ceasing waves,
then I know . . .
Eternal God is present.
When I see
the magnificence
of the rainbow
that hugs the world
in a giant arc
to proclaim His promise
and serve as a reminder
that every word God said
is trustworthy and true,
then I know . . .
Eternal God lis present.
When I see
the wondrous variety
and spectacular beauty
of animals and birds
that inhabit our world,
and the multitude
of flora and fauna,
with brightness and color,
adding cheer to each beholder,
then I know . . .
Eternal God is present.
When I see
the joy on faces of new parents
as they hold in their arms,
for the first time,
the tiny babe
God fashioned so delicately
in the mother’s womb,
the evidence of their love
made visible,
then I know . . .
Eternal God is present,
When I cannot see
the works of God
because of the turmoil
in my heart,
the problems that
consume me,
my immeasurable
pain or fear
or sorrow,
still I know . . .
Eternal God is present.
