Delight

December 9
Delight

Seeing the snow-covered branches sparkle as the sun shines on them from a baby blue sky the day after a blizzard

Relishing a new flavor that makes all the taste buds on the tongue come alive in an unexpected way

Feeling the firm grasp of a new born babe's tiny hand around a stubby old finger

Smelling the fragrance of lilac in springtime, wafting on a gentle breeze

Finally hearing those long anticipated words, "I love you," from a new love

Through all our senses God is there

In taste and touch, smell, sound and sight.

Abundantly! These gifts are given.

Awake! Awake to God's delight!

Where will I experience delight in this day?
