A friend gave me this food for thought and that I should revere my God.

The sphere of earth spins on its axis, cycling through space.

Gravity reaches out, tugs the galaxies into orbits.

Air is invisible to us, but we breathe it anyway.

Some things are beyond denial, beyond protesting against.

The presence of God is like that.

God is everywhere, in everything, in everyone.

In God, we live and breathe and have our being.

We are like fish in water, birds in air –

we cannot see and cannot know the medium that supports us,

lifts us, holds us, lets us live our independent lives.

But the invisible God draws all things together,

makes meaning out of chaos, makes connection out of coincidence.

It’s not up to us to judge God’s presence;

the heavens themselves are God’s witness.

The words belong to J. Taylor
