tonight, it reminded me of God's variety, of His design in making things with great variety.
we grilled hot dogs for supper tonight. went to grab all the condiments to put on the table.
typical yellow table mustard.
chipotle mustard.
smoky onion mustard. (mmm...tasty)
how does this relate to God? variety. God made variety. God loves variety.
He could have made us all the same.
He could have made the things around us identical.
He could have made our perspectives exactly the same.
He could have made the landscape of the world entirely predictable.
but He didn't.
we come in different colors with all kinds of variables.
eye color, hair type and color, height, width.
talents, interests, abilities, likes and dislikes.
we have different passions and fears.
some of us love to be in the middle of it all.
some of us love to find a secluded place.
some of us love both.
we are surrounded by cities or wide-open spaces.
there are animals and plants of incredible variety around us.
the weather changes constantly.
the seasons show us variety.
some are incredibly sensitive and some do not notice the emotions of others.
some of us are thinkers and some thrive on action.
some go on impulse and some are reserved, wanting to wait before acting.
loud, soft, artistic, athletic.
mountains, plains, ocean, desert.
arid, humid, rainy, snowy.
peaks, valleys.
i am so grateful that He gave great attention to detail.
an infinite variety of detail.
we get to enjoy the infinite variety of His creation.
tonight at our house, it was mustard.
tomorrow, it is an infinite amount of possibilities.
