Sister Confianza admiring a ripening yellow cashew apple Recent God sightings in my life:
A bright double rainbow one evening, shining to the south of the house
A young father holding his four-year-old daughter in the line at the bank
A child that gave me a piece of his candy
A tiny black-and-white butterfly drinking from a yellow flower
A hummingbird that hovered just a few feet from my face
Improvement in relations among the staff at the public health clinic where we volunteer
A small spider that built a spherical web in a pineapple plant
A generous gift of freshly harvested fruit including mangoes, bananas, and coconuts
The “chance” meeting of a friend we’d been trying to get in touch with
Rain pattering on the roof
A cup of strong coffee, just when I needed a boost
A ride all the way to the clinic
The opportunity to share pineapples we’d picked
Encouraging emails from friends
The inauguration of the clinical laboratory we’d helped found
Singing and playing guitar
A desire to be closer to God
What wonders of the natural world! What love manifest among persons! Praise God for divine presence in daily life! Praise God, all creation!
