Greetings Dear Reader,
The storms continue to run through our unseasonably cool
days. Yesterday my Daughter and I had to
drive to a neighboring town just after one of those storms. As we passed through the rolling hills west
of us the rain abated.
As the storm broke up the sun shot down through the
clouds. The rays splayed out across the
green fields and stretches of wood igniting patches of it in brilliant
light. It intently reminded me of the
pictures from my Grandfather’s family Bible.
The most significant picture was the one after the flood where the ark
is on the mountain.
Ever since I can remember I have called this effect “Biblical
Sunshine”. The memory of looking
through that old giant Bible on my Grandfather’s coffee table is always a
pleasant one. The event of seeing
Biblical Sunshine always triggers it and reminds how much beauty there is in a
freshly watered world.
The magic in those moments comes from deep inside me. There is a depth to the beauty and love of
that beauty that is unique for me. I
shared my thoughts on it with my Daughter as we drove. We both reveled in the way that the world can
be so very lovely in storms and in that which follows the storm.
Wishing you joy in the journey,
Aramis Thorn
Mat 13:52 So Jesus said to them, "That is why every writer
who has become a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a home
owner. He liberally hands out new and old things from his great treasure
store.”
