God the Creative Genius by Bri (a pilgrim)
On Saturday we went snorkeling on the second largest Coral Reef in the world. Some of us were nervous, but by the end of the day the awe of God’s creation was unanimous among us. The experience was truly unforgettable.
The almost familial affinity among the members of our team showed itself as we all remained closed together in the water and watched out for one another. Even though some of us were a few sunburns, kicks to the face, or scrapes for the worse by the end, we returned to the base feeling closer than ever.
What seemed to ring most in our minds was the creative genius of God. What human artist could shape the shimmering technicolor scales of a fish as it darts among the coral? And who knows how to make great fluorescent blue schools move in total unison? Could anyone choreograph the graceful dance of the sting rays as they fly beneath the clearest water? Only God. And that same Craftsman is the One who made you and me.
