It's All So Wonderful

This week's Five Minute Friday prompt is Wonder.


Start

Looking at the stars is both a beautiful experience and one that boggles my mind.   Space is huge.   I can't fathom how big or wide all that space is.    It makes me feel small and insignificant.   

In early November I was on vacation with a friend.   We stood on the deck of the cruise ship in the middle of the Caribbean Sea and looked up at the stars.    

We wondered:
How can anyone look at the stars and doubt the existence of God?  

The beauty of nature is such that it's hard to believe that it all happened by accident.   

As I travel, I like to be in the moment and just enjoy what is. 
The moment I'm in is the only one that I'm guaranteed.   

Leaves.

Fish. 

Sunsets.

Mountains.

Giraffes.

Hibiscus.

Chocolate.

The world is full of wonder.   It can be exciting.   It can be exhausting.

It can be wonderful. 

Stop

Five Minute Friday is a feature on Lisa Jo's blog encouraging people to write for 5 minutes completely unscripted or unplanned on a particular word.   FMF is taking a vacation in December...don't worry, I'm sure you'll find a way to use those minutes for something fun.

  1. Yes, so true. It can be wonderful. When we take time to look, He is there in every dew drop upon roses and in the rays of the sunlight, touching the faces of Hibiscus.

    Thanks for this. When I look upon the starry night sky, it makes me wonder the magnitude of God's love. It is more than enough for me. He is far greater than what we see. I hope people will stop and take in this truth. He could never fit in the biggest mall of materials in the whole world.

    Blessings! Hopping in from FMF community.
