God's Creation

A couple of weeks ago, I was in Nashville for a meeting for my tentmaking job. One evening, a group of us was having dinner. I sat near one lady from South Africa who is now living in Vancouver, BC. On the other side of the table was a lady from Ghana and who is now living in Toronto.

I asked them both, "What do you miss most about your homeland?"

Geraldine from South Africa responded, "I miss most the game preserves where I can see the wild animals and beautiful scenery."

Peggy from Ghana responded, "I miss most the white sand beaches."

I think it's great that God's creation can make such an impact on people. It wasn't old friends they missed the most - rather God's creation.

Take a minute today to look around you and notice the wonder of God's creation.
