My grandma doesn’t believe in shaving!
She doesn’t know anything about evolution.
She doesn’t care.  God is the big picture!

It should be that simple, it is to me.

God is the simple explanation for things like love
that can not be replicated in a controlled environment by man
God is the energy and space between us,
Like the beads in this rosary,
He keeps us linked, as we meditate
Toward a more perfect way of loving others
He makes the intersections of our lives today
Be a real purposeful experience
His knowledge pours to us through science
To see the most perfect design
in the nucleus of a cell
That replicates billions of times
in different ways
To make beings, societies, ecosystems!
This is true awe and reverence.

No,
We are not just the dust particles in this room
That have been aimlessly floating in space
for billions of years foregone and to come,
We are not the unfound half human ape link.

We are a reflection of God!
Because of His perfection
we cannot be anything other than beautiful!

We are creativity, music, art, and dance
Walking to beat of one drum in different rhythms like the many beautiful flowers,
We are sparkling photons of light, that illuminate one another.
