Can you see God in this delicate iris bloom?

I can.

Only God could've made such a intricate creation. I can see God's work in the lovely purple blending into white. I can see God's work in the intricate veins of each petal, how he slowly, painstakingly separated the yellow from the purple from the white and even added the veins on the petals for texture!


If God could be bothered to form a flower so perfectly, to clothe the million different flowers in a million different hues and patterns - what more each of us? The book of Genesis says in the story of creation, that we humans are made exactly in God's likeness.

So the next time when you look down at your own hands, notice the 5 fingers and each individual delicate nail, note the swirly patterns on each fingertip (your fingerprints, which are unique to yourself by the way), wriggle your fingers around for a bit and thank God that He remembered to give you 5 fingers on each hand while He was busy designing you. :)
