Today I was showing someone some things in our youth house that might be useful in the church kitchen since we won't be using them. As we started to walk in the back door, she stopped abruptly. Then she started talking about the beautiful stained glass on the corners of the window of the door. Honestly, I have to say I had never noticed it before. I have walked through that door hundreds of times and if someone had asked me where there was stained glass in that house I couldn't tell them.
It really got me thinking. There are things we walk by every day, people we see every day, and experiences we have every day. But, somehow we miss things that others see. I guess that's why we are all here-we are all unique and have our own gifts. And, it's important that we recognize that and pay attention to what people around us have to say. They can give us insight into things we don't have the ability to be aware of ourselves.
So where was God today? He helped me by reminding me to look around me and listen.
Blessings,
Jennifer
