Clear Night Sky   Black velvet stretches out endlessly above me, draped across the tops of the pointed green pines.  Silver sequin stars sewn to the surface wink as if they know a secret, but I can see the signs. The inky velvet drape muffles the sounds  of murmuring tree frogs and whirring night birds. While a cool breeze whispers: hushing all doubts, calming all fears, and speaking of the wonder without any words. So small, so unimportant, we are, and yet, all part of the grand scheme. The roles we play, we may never know, but they're much more significant than what they first seem. We, like the stars,  are tiny sequins in a world that is amazing and immense, but if we let our lights shine and keep our feet on the path, some day, some day,  it will all make sense.

I saw this video on Sandy's blog and loved it so much I wanted to share it with my readers here.  It reveals a little bit about the part that math plays in nature.  I really don't understand how someone can take a look at nature, and I mean really look,  and doubt that there is a God.  Such precision, such beauty, the patterns, the symmetry--- it is all so complex and amazing that it simply boggles my mind.  Thanks, Sandy, for sharing this. Psalm 139:14  I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
