God does so move in a mysterious way

 The Hymn of the Day


God Moves in a Mysterious Way


The mystery of God's movement is sometimes a quiet thing and sometimes a loud thing.  The clouds and the sky are usually quiet and the designs of the beautiful wildlife are a quiet mystery.  What a funny stripe the skunk has on it’s back and the perfume of gore is its amazement.  Who thought of that? God! Millions and billions of design elements in the birds and flora and fauna around us.  Still we find so much time to look at animations of people when the animations of God are so fascinating. The designs of God’s loudness are the sounds of the laughing hyena, or the calls of the whales to eachother from the deep.  Loudness with humor and meaning.  Loudness of thunder that strikes such fear in us, that if we heard it rattle more than one clap at a time, we would cower under the bed.  He gives us what we can handle of loudness.  

His mystery in design is as infinite as his attributes.

The hymn says that He plants his footsteps in the seas and ride upon the storms.  Tiptoing around us and riding above us as though we are in the middle.  He cares and entertains us in his mystery and yet we are often so unaware.
