Very soon my husband and I will be parting ways. No we aren't getting a divorce. He is going to VA Beach to get some training. I'm off to Mexico to do something I do well, build houses and support Amor through their spring season. Because my husband loves me, he asked for a pass this weekend. We wanted to take me to the aquarium in Atlanta. Now Chief, as his called by the band folks ( I can him Jesse), calls my husband into his office to get some details before he approves it. James reminds him that we'll be apart for little over 2 months and he would like to take me to the aquarium. Chief gives James the aren't you to old to be going to places like that without children.
If it were up to me to respond this is what I would say to him. No, we aren't. See, we have this great and amazing God. For some reason beyond my ability to understand cares for us. God took his time at making all these amazing things. I find the things under the water to be extra neat. I'm just think it's so fascinating to see these creatures that God took the time to make. That's why I like the aquarium so much it gives the ability to see these creatures. I want to stand in awe at things God made. I want to stare into water and see animals and think of how great my God is. Then I'm going to smile a big smile. See, another thing about this amazing God is that He has a hobby. He's busy running the world, take care of this and that and watching over us, but He has a hobby. His hobby is making us, those that love Him back, smile. God likes to see us smile. It warms His heart. It probably makes His day when we smile because of works He did. So, Chief, I want to spend time with husband admiring the things God made. I want to stand there and think how awesome is that God created something just to make me happy.
Yes, I firmly believe that the only reason there are aquariums to make me smile. I have no doubt that when we get to heaven if you ask God what was the purpose of aquariums, he'll respond, "To make Michelle smile."
There's something out there that makes you smile. It's for you. God made it just for you. Go and enjoyed and don't forget to smile.
