River roads

 

What better way to follow another blood test than to walk along the beautiful River Dee and take in the beauties of that arterial system bringing life to the countryside? With the peekaboo sun glinting on the bubbling waters, and the fishermen standing waist-deep along the banks, a brisk walk was so restorative. There is something life-affirming about the sound of water rushing and dancing over and around rocks in its way. It provides habitat and shelter for so many aquatic creatures, moves debris and particles around in an act of constant creativity. It satisfies our thirst and restores our well-being.

Just like the miracle of blood, carrying oxygen to my brain, transporting the building blocks of good health from one bit of my body to another. So grateful to God for the miracle of his creation.

There is such an inter-connectedness in our world, and we will only create a healthy world when we finally cooperate rather than compete, when greed gives way to generosity, and when love sweeps away the last vestiges of hate. Maranatha. Come, Lord Jesus.
