LOOK FOR MY SIGNS

             I have placed my rainbow in the clouds.  It is the sign of my covenant with you and with all the earth.    Genesis 9:13  

     Do you look for signs while traveling in unfamiliar parts of a city?  Do you watch your garden for signs of bulbs bursting through snow?  Ever watch for signs that someone is hurting; needs encouragement or needs a job.  Maybe you can’t provide for them in all the ways they desire at the time, but you can promote a relationship.  Recall the great commandment where Christ wrapped it all up in a nice neat package we can understand:  “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind; and, love your neighbor as yourself”. Luke 10:27 Maybe that is where the old cliché comes from: walking in some one else’s shoes. 

     When you are hurting… down and desperately in need of understanding, comfort and forgiving, aren’t you accepting of almost anybody?  Well, today, you are that anybody for somebody out there somewhere!  Be watchful for those preordained God pushes onto your pathways.  Look for the signs.  They are everywhere.  God loves us all the time in all the places.  Watch for his finger prints on the menu of your day!

 Gardener tip: Watch for plants showing stress all throughout the year.  One or more may need relocating.
