A Morning Illusion
My recent trip to NoVA intruded into my morning commute in a magnificently pleasant way. While driving to work I thought I could smell the scent of boxwood along the route. As there is nothing remotely resembling boxwood anywhere along my route it was a wonderful, heaven-sent reminder of the time I had recently been able to spend with family and loved ones in NoVA. We are told not to look for consolations in our prayer life, but what can you do when God literally showers one with them every day, every hour, every moment of life? After all simply drawing one breath after another is a profound and beautiful gift from a loving God. Everything in the world points to Him, why do so few choose to look?
