Introducing you to this fragment of nature I currently look up to…

It stands tall outside my bedroom’s window and has become the first thing I see when I look out.

It has no eyes, no lips but I feel it’s intimidating presence. It’s like we’re both vying for the cloud’s attention.

Whenever its branches begin swaying and dancing to the tune played by the wind, I am reminded that if I don’t praise God, then the trees of the earth will.

And so, on days when I wake up moody and ungrateful, with a lot of things to complain about, I look out of my window and I see this tree. I become filled with envy and snarl at those slender branches🙄 because I know that even though I chose not to praise God, this tree will declare His glory and give Him thanks.

What do I do then?😌

I join the tree, along with its branches, leaves and the birds that come to nest and rest and give thanks to the One who deserves all the glory!🙏🥰
