365 Project Day 318: My Worship Path

Canon 5D Mark ll, 50 1.2L, 3.2 aperture, 1/160 shutter, 400 ISO

We are all so unique, and God speaks to us in different ways. In my walk with God, He seems the most accessible to me when I move my feet to the outdoors. The threads of busyness and worry loosen as I open my heart and delight in the goodness of God. I imagine Him walking with me, listening to me chatter on about the beauty. I like to think He loves to hear it, as any artist does, when I tell Him again and again how I love the richness of His earth. I do not feel silly when I am with Him, enthralled in the glory He has made, as I do sometimes with others. He does not seem to mind that I forget about time when I am with Him. He made it for us, and when He did, He said it was good. Yes, it is good, Lord.

I see Him there, His attention to detail, His joy in the color and warmth, His glory in the brilliance of the sunlight at magic hour, and His depth in the shades of twilight. Yes, this is the path He has given to me, and if I forsake it to get things done in front of a computer screen, then I am not caring for the needs of my own heart and spirit. He has given me this path as a blessing, a way to find intimacy with my Creator.  I cannot compare my path with the paths of others.

This is my worship path. Have you found yours yet? It may be like mine, or something completely different. I would love to know what yours is.

Psalm 65:8 ~”The whole earth is filled with awe at your wonders; where morning dawns, where evening fades, you call forth songs of joy.”
