Embracing God Moments: Finding Peace in Daily Life

A Hug from Heaven

Spring’s warm breeze embraced me,swirling around me in the quiet of the morning,caressing my face and armswith its gentle passing -a hug from Heaven.Shadows from clouds filtered the lightas they floated by,journeying to who knows where.My breeze,for now I claimed it,helped them on their way.In the stillness I listened.Hens quietly gossiped over their eggs.A cardinal sang out.The wind tuned a muted symphonythrough the branches, and water from the fountainadded its accompaniment.My heart drank the calm abundanceof the moment.

I am so thankful for the tiny moments that God gives us each day. Moments in the middle of busyness and stress. Moments to stop and listen for His voice.

These are the brief vacations that allow our souls to relax and breathe even though our lives seem to be tied in knots. These are God moments.

Never ignore them. They are gifts for the soul, hugs from Heaven, times for giving thanks.

Look for your God moments today, and give Him praise.

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee (Isaiah 26:3, KJV).
