Outside My Kitchen Window

There's a window over my kitchen sink that looks out on an empty lot next door.  I had finished washing a few dishes and was staring out the window when I realized I was almost in a trance.  Everything is so green now.  The leaves on the trees were wet from the rain and were gently swaying in the breeze.  It was hypnotic... and peaceful.  It never fails to amaze me how the simplest things that we see everyday can be touched by God and transformed.  The dancing leaves in all their shades of green turned a simple tree into a mesmerizing sight.  Today I found God outside my kitchen window.
