Wonder and awe beat anxiety at 30,000 feet. Looking out the little airplane window I am stunned by the blue of the sky. Is it cornflower blue? Periwinkle? It’s a blue I have never seen before. Is this what it would be like to be on the inside of a saphire? And the formation of the clouds. So billowy and soft and inviting. Like a feather bed at your grandparent’s house in the country. The daydreams that could be inspired by a bed of clouds.
I laugh at myself because I always say I’m not a “nature girl.” But maybe I am. My heart beats faster when I get glimpses of God’s artistry up close like this. And I can’t help but think of all the other little wonders of His creation that astound me.
Like seahorses. And lady bugs. And clementines. And pomegranates.
