Choosing to Praise

Choosing to Praise

When I first came across some little blooms like these, I was about to admire them … but then I realized they were on sticker bushes and I therefore deemed them unworthy of being awed over. 


But afterwards, I realized just because they are on sticker bushes doesn’t mean they are any less amazing or that God’s glory is any less revealed in them. 


So God gave me another chance. 

And the next time I came across them I marveled in wonder, and praised God for them! 


( * I have since learned that this particular plant is:  Black swamp gooseberry/ prickly currant)
