With Wonder
by Tonja Taylor

28 And why should you be anxious about clothes? Consider the lilies of the field and learn thoroughly how they grow; they neither toil nor spin. 29 Yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his magnificence (excellence, dignity, and grace) was not arrayed like one of these.--Matthew 6:28,29, AMPC

Many times, I have marvelled at the amazing and intricate design of even a simple leaf! I was doing that this morning, when a Mason bee arrived and started to diligently collect pollen from many of the blossoms on my organic cucumber plant (which delights me, because I planted the seed, and the LORD God had prospered it, so that it was now over two feet tall, loaded with lots of baby cukes!).

Then I marvelled even more! This little bee--which God had created, given life, and taught to fly and find the flowers and gather pollen--was just half an inch long. Yet, it was obviously fully committed to and confident about its mission on earth.

"LORD, make me like this creature!" I prayed, "focused; single-minded and productive on getting Your will done!"

I know He will answer that prayer, for that is His will, and I John 5:14 and 15 says that, when we pray in His will, He hears us, and we know that we have what we ask. Amen!

Then I was overcome, truly in awe, at the fact that He--the God of the universe!--created me in my mother's womb (Psalm 139:13,14). He considers me, knows me intimately, and has already designed the perfect Plan for my life (Ephesians 2:10 and 3:20)! He loves me more than I can ever understand, but I know it deep in my heart. Hallelujah!

Truly, the creation of our LORD is awesome!  (I can only use "awesome" for Him, for He alone is awesome. There is no one and nothing like Him!)

He is good, and everything He makes is good!

Think about it: If the LORD our Father, the Creator Elohim, takes such care in creating--and sustaining!--even the simplest life form, then how much more does He love and care for and have excellent plans for you?!

Ask Him today to help you wonder more--the right way; with child-like faith, joy, and thanksgiving. It will bring you more delight and revelation in your relationship with Him!
