God is the most wonderful creative being! He was a story teller here when he walked the earth, he created the most wonderful creations....we are molded in his image, glorious landscapes, beautiful oceans, magnificent sunsets and sunrises. And you know what he still is all those things! He writes our stories of our lives as we are his characters in the story. He continues to paint the beautiful details in a butterfly's wings, piece together the bark of a tree and bloom shady green leaves. He even puts music all around us, in the birds, the wind, in crickets and frogs. How can we not be inspired by the beauty around us?
Jesus told parables, embedded with lessons that we are to learn. Lessons he wants to teach us. Allegories they are called. We too write such things as he reveals to us what he wants the world to know. We hide his truths in such a way that people are drawn to it. It is important to take time and be silent, that way we can listen clearly to what he is saying. Whether it is an idea that pops in our head, a vision, a dream, an inspiration, or a request from someone. God speaks to us in many ways. He teaches me things through nature, for example. But like I said earlier you have to be silent in order to hear him. Not just silent from the noise in the atmosphere, (siblings, clanging pots and pans, the vacuum cleaner, etc...) but silent in your mind
(distractions as your mind wanders, things that are going on in your life, or your building chore list, homework, housework, issues at work, school, etc...) Take time out for him, try to listen
He has a lot to say a lot to teach us.
Love and Blessings
