Fog

There is a light fog over the world this morning. Just enough to notice and gray the world a little. God's presence is like fog in some ways.

God's presence is like fog in that it covers everything. Fog can be a little clumpy but it goes everywhere without restraint. God's presence is everywhere. In some places it seems to be thicker and in others less apparent, but God's presnece seeps in everywhere.

Fog dims our vision. God's presence changes our vision too. When we are aware of God's presence we see the things of this world a little less clearly and the things of the next more clearly. God's presence causes us to focus less on the things of the world's kingdom and more on the things of God's kingdom.

Fog can be felt as much as it is seen. God's presence is perhaps more often felt than seen.

Fog is so pervasive that you breathe in the fog. God's presence is like that. We breathe in the presence of God with every breathe we take.

Fog reminds me of God's presencce. But then so does everything else God has created.
