"went to the zoo, and I'm gettin' sleepy . . ."

My daughter now knows for sure that giraffes are real. She has seen them with her very own eyes.

I have no great spiritual insight to draw from that, even if it does remind me of the apostle's "what we have seen with our eyes, that which our hands have touched . . . concerning the word of truth."

Enough to say that there are days in the church year like this, where you get to go to somewhere glorious, full of beautiful, colorful, riotously imaginative examples of the Lord's creativity, and though your mind is filled to over-flowing with images, your fingers don't want to type another keystroke.

So, 'night, folks. May your near future contain glimpses of God's gorgeous creativity, and at least one day when you spend enough time tromping around through creation with people you love that you are happily exhausted by the end of it.


peace of Christ to you,
Jessica
