A Creation Moment

from Katherine 
We wrote a curriculum for kids based on the creation story. It has been great fun and we have all learned a lot. Something I have noticed about myself is that I am more aware of God’s creation all around me now that I have been sharing the message of the Creation Story with the children in the Eastern Cape for the last year. 

The other day I was walking up the stairs outside of our home and a centipede was crawling along the

step. He was fire engine red!  A year ago I might have noticed him but not given him much attention. Not any more - I watched him, took his picture and made a mental note about how long his was so when I show the kids his picture I will be able to tell them all about the centipede.

Today, our tiny church was crowded so I sat in the very back next to the door. We sang How Great Thou Art and a bird landed on a tree branch right next to the door and sang his little heart out. (Now this is the part where I sound like a nutty little old lady.) I think that little bird was singing along with us; maybe not the exact words but he was clearly singing his praises to his creator while the people sang their praises. It was a cool creation moment. Wish I had had my camera!!
