On my recent Vacay I did what I always do, I take way too many photos. It's like the whole world is eye candy and my eyes are two years old. "Oh look at that, ooh look over there. Wanna go see that?" I want it all. That being said--I take pictures, lots of pictures. I want to share them all. Maybe that's why I do this Blog? Maybe that's why I preach? Lord, maybe that's why I do everything? I want you to experience all the wonderful things in life that I experience. I want you to know Jesus! Ice Cream! and, and, and, and, Oh and these flowers that I don't even know the name of!!!
It was early. I mean I don't even think God was up yet? Just kidding....I know, "He never sleeps nor slumbers..." Psalm 121:2-4 However, I am a 7-1-3 or a 3-1-8 the final decision has not been made but, if you want to get along with me, when I'm creatively speaking just go along with me, laugh with me, and let me tell my story. I wish you could see my face. I'm smiling because so few of you know what I am talking about, but I will save that for another day. In the meantime go read up on the real "Christian Version" of the Enneagram. A good book on the subject is, "Road Back to You" by Ian Morgan Cron and Suzanne Stabile
So, back to my story. It was like 5 AM, $#%&%$#. Yeah, I know. Right? My eyes were barely open. But, these flowers! They made my eyelids shoot straight up. I thought Lord these must be called, "The Bird of Paradise" flower. I mean surely that's their name. Although truly, I have no idea what they are, so feel free to comment to today's Blog.
But, yes it was early. I'm not a morning person. I am more the bump into things and drop things kinda morning person. But, check these things out. Who makes flowers that look like birds. I know you can probably do a pretty mean balloon animal and tie him up to look just like a dog, but God gave someone that idea to make a balloon so He still gets the credit. Sorry.

My eyes wide open snapping photos of the bird flower, I am totally awake. I'm like talking to God now. I know right? He's probably wondering whose talking, because He's not used to hearing me that early! God you make awesome stuff. God why did you make these flowers to look like birds? I kept firing the questions at God, after all one of His many titles has to be Botanist. Right?
Since we all figure everyone else, thinks like us, I didn't expect Him to answer; but He did. God you have my full attention even at 5 AM...just saying. "I made them to standout!" Yes, You did God--I thought to myself, yes You did. Because, they caused me stop, stop in my half-dead state of trying to wake up and take pictures, gather my little family together instead of continuing to the Pier to fish, and just stop and look at what You made God.
"I make everything to stand out!" "I made the sun, the sun flower to turn his head, the fish, the moon, smells both good and bad and just because I'm God...and I want you to standout too!'
