To worship my God

You need never visit church

Nature’s His temple

“I sit in silence and join the song of the universe.”

      Ah, the redwoods––I have to see them some day. They’re definitely on my “Bucket List”. Thank you, Denise! ❤

    What a wonderful thought Vashti!! Loved your haiku.
    Is there any need to worship Him if you love Nature and could be kind to the blessings she offers?

      I do love nature! I think God is in every flower, tree and blade of grass and so many animals reflect godliness. A church is just a building. People can worship anywhere. Thank you, Balroop! ❤

        This reminds me of James Herriot’s short story ‘God Is Near’ in which he doesn’t refer to worship or God even once! His story is about the cats and dogs of Miss Stubbs who is an invalid…subtle messages of loving Him through His creation.

    Totally off topic, but where did you find the artwork for your pinned tweet? It’s pretty but disturbing all at the same time. You always have such interesting graphics.
