I love how everything seems so clean and bright. The plants seem to rejoice standing up tall and the birds sing louder with a special melody. This past week I finally was able to experience my favorite weather. I took my 8 month old Beagle on a walk as steam billowed up from the freshly renewed land. God&#8217;s revelation in the natural world never ceases to amaze me. I was in entrenched in a study of Leviticus shortly before this walk. A study that left me seeking the relationship of this book of Jewish laws and practices to my life. Then I was hit by this image:<a href=\"http:\/\/profoundmystery.com\/onemansrace\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2011\/09\/RainWalk92011-0001.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-218\" title=\"RainWalk92011-0001\" src=\"http:\/\/profoundmystery.com\/onemansrace\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2011\/09\/RainWalk92011-0001.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"252\" height=\"379\" srcset=\"https:\/\/profoundmystery.com\/onemansrace\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2011\/09\/RainWalk92011-0001.jpg 600w, https:\/\/profoundmystery.com\/onemansrace\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2011\/09\/RainWalk92011-0001-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 252px) 100vw, 252px\" \/><\/a>My thoughts drifted away from Leviticus as my attention was drawn to the beautiful tapestry before me. My puppy Durango and I continued on our walk without our usual banter. He seemed\u00a0acutely\u00a0aware of uniqueness of these moments as I did. We rounded a corner on the street and as we passed a bush we encountered many times I was struck.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/profoundmystery.com\/onemansrace\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2011\/09\/RainWalk92011-00021.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-225 alignleft\" style=\"border-style: initial;border-color: initial\" title=\"RainWalk92011-0002\" src=\"http:\/\/profoundmystery.com\/onemansrace\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2011\/09\/RainWalk92011-00021-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/profoundmystery.com\/onemansrace\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2011\/09\/RainWalk92011-00021-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/profoundmystery.com\/onemansrace\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2011\/09\/RainWalk92011-00021-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/profoundmystery.com\/onemansrace\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2011\/09\/RainWalk92011-00021.jpg 902w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>There by an amazing purple display glistening with refreshing diamonds. Durango barreled into the bush after what I can assume was an interesting smell. I stood there amazed with the simplicity and order before me. \u00a0The Creator&#8217;s hand embraced me and reminded me of the order in\u00a0everything. Leviticus was about\u00a0worshiping\u00a0something beautiful and beauty is found in the marvelous wild order of the natural world. Leviticus&#8217;s commands bring order to the worship of God, an order that reflects an amazing part of his personality.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Strange as it may seem my favorite weather is those moments right after a rain shower.
