The man whispered, "God, speak to me,"
And a meadowlark sang.
But the man did not hear.

So the man yelled "God, speak to me,"
And the thunder and lightning rolled across the sky.
But the man did not listen.

The man looked around and said, "God, let me see you."
And a star shined brightly.
But the man did not see.

And, the man shouted, "God, show me a miracle"
And a life was born.
But the man did not notice.

So, the man cried out in despair, "Touch me, God, and let me know you are here"
Whereupon, God reached down and touched the man.
But the man brushed the butterfly away and walked on.

God is always revealing Himself
in the little and simple things that we take for granted.
God grant us eyes to see and ears to hear.
