Author, poet, and retreat leader, Jan Phillips, has written in her book God is at Eye Level that all we see can be a window into the heart of God. Her words:
My eyes find God everywhere, in every living thing, creature, person, in every act of kindness, act of nature, act of grace. Everywhere I look, there God is, looking back, looking straight back.
I find it to be true – especially on a beautiful autumn day with egrets in flight and reflections shining to meet the fine line of reality. Everywhere we look, God is looking back and grace abounds.
Take a look. Take a closer look!
