written for Sunday Scribblings prompt:  standing ovation

Significance…found.

During my recent vacation I experienced three scenarios:

Standing on the shore, looking at the horizon
where the water seems never to end…
Peering out of the window of an airplane at the endless sky…

Gazing at the night sky and its countless stars…

It is during times like these that I am overwhelmed
by the vastness of the One who created me…
and how small I feel in comparison.
Yet, He knows me by name.
He knows the number of hairs on my head.
He knows my innermost thoughts and wishes.
To Him, I am a precious child.
Significant.

Reflecting on Reflections

Reflecting on Reflections

I stood
on the edge
peering into the darkness
an occasional ripple
aiding depth perception

I stood
on the edge
peering into the depths
seeing the moon
in all its fullness

I stood
on the edge
looking to the heavens
seeing that which was reflected
so clearly below

I stood
on the edge
praying that I am
a reflection
of the One who created me
