Today was just one of those days where everything is peaceful.

God appeared in many things today, that I visibly noticed.

I've started noticing God in the subtleties lately.

I went with my Dad today, to go shopping for the coming holidays and birthdays in the family. In that time, my Dad and I spent some time talking, like we hadn't in a while, and it was pretty nice, I have to say. I remember praying recently that God would give me the means to start to patch up and make a good relationship with my Dad, which has been rough since I became a teenager.

To see that God can take one of the most difficult things in my life and turn it around is something that truly moves me inside. It's one of the biggest miracles I've been witness to, in my time.

I saw something tonight that made me think back on something from around this time last year.

I was watching a friend's band try to rehearse/write, and about the only thing that they could do was argue. They were constantly pointing out each others inequities, and I actually was standing there with my friend, who was the drummer in the last two bands I have been in. I actually mentioned to him that we, as a band never argued like that in two years time, and he replied, "the only reason I can figure is because God was there when we played, and kept us from it."

That was something that I really had never thought of. I mean, I had thought that maybe God had wanted our stuff to be done, in His plan, but I had never realized how much God had truly impacted our work, and how we went about things. I never realized just how much fun we had as a band, and as friends, and as fellowship.

I just stand amazed at how much God can do, and how ignorant we can be to it, until we look back on it.

Whew, that God is something else.

Why do we ever doubt? What reason lies in doubting the one that has the power to create a universe? What logic can we apply to questioning the one who set the boundaries by which logic can even apply?
