Are you a Submarine?

This is the Cherry tree at my work parking lot. Every spring it flowers so pretty. I can only say that this tree been here for ever. Just look at its root. Every SPRING, I go and take a picture of it.
It is amazing how the season changes and how God is great.

This Past Sunday, I was teaching my middle Sunday school class about how we are living in the presence of God all the time as we walk this earth. That His work is every where. As result, we should live the fine line of pride and humbleness. Proud to belong to such great God and humble as we don't deserve to belong to him, but is his mighty grace we wanted us more than any thing.

More than 10 year ago, I heard that comment from a preacher, who said, many of us act like submarines, who are under the water for so long and only come out once a while they are out of food. He said that we are under the world all week long and only realize God presences as we enter the church on Sundays. We need to see God in every thing around us. The flowers, the sun, the rain, the snow, the seasons, the heat, the cold, and every thing.

Here is the Video I used during my Sunday school class.



Now, share with me and others how you see God around you... link below.

Churchy Flowers at the door steps

Last week, I noticed those new flower plantation around the outside of the church. It was a sign of the spring is in town. But this year was different. I noticed what Mary Baheg did. She not only taking care of the flowers, but she also inserted those verses in each one of them.

I didn't know how to think of them, or how the idea came to her but I liked it.
I didn't want to ask her about tItalichem, since I wanted to think about them for a bit and see what influence of the thoughts might have on me.
One of the things I did think of was how small things matter if you did it was a humble heart and with purpose in mind.

I think that the verses were put there with a purpose in mind. It also made the flowers even more meaningful and prettier. God is good in every way and I am sure he does appreciate all these small touches.

I also thank God for making me notice those small things, it makes me feel his presence is every where around us.
