More arms, more powerful. More heads, more wisdom. Each divinity has his own transport. Down at their feet, you could see a rat, a cow and a snake That's why all those animals, as well as pigeons are sacred! No harm!
某天我在網路上看到有人利用閃光燈和彩色紙+臉盆拍攝水滴的彈跳畫面，我覺得非常有趣，於是當晚在自家的洗碗槽裡做了很多拍攝實驗，還記得當天晚上下著雷雨，反正不能出去拍照就來研究看看吧，意外的拍到這奇怪的形狀，連我自己都很訝異。
水滴狀擊水盆後反作用力所彈起水花，拉升出女性的形體。

Day 13: Simply Divine. Never been terribly religious. So I find my awe in the beauty and order of nature and, more recently, the transformative powers of amazing light.
God's Divinity
Receive
Today's passage: Isaiah 55:8-13.
Reflect:
Do I truly care about God's thoughts and ways? Do I truly believe that His direction can make a concrete difference in my life? Am I willing to read the Bible with an open heart and mind in order to discern what God wants from me? God is clear about how He see His Word working in our lives. As the rain nourishes the soil, feeding plants and crops that will grow to sustain those who harvest them, God's Word nourishes our souls, feeding us so that we will grow and flourish and sustaining us through periods of drought and difficulty. What's more, God's Word contains a specific message and specific direction for each of us. Scripture illuminates the purpose He has for us on this earth. His personal message is contained within the pages of the Bible. We must seek that direction first in order to be led by it.
Respond:
Ask for change: Lord, I know Your holy thoughts and ways are far beyond my limited human ability to comprehend. Yet I also know that You gave me Your Word as a means to grow closer to You and understand what purpose You have for me. Help Your Word mold my life into what You intend it to be.
Consider what's real: Sometimes we try to "get through the Bible" instead of letting the Bible get through to us. Today, try to slow down as you read; perhaps even meditate a bit on the verses. As Henri Nouwen says, "Meditation means chewing on the word and incorporating it into our lives. It is the discipline by which we let the written word of God become a personal word for us, anchored in the center of our being."*
Additional verses to consider: Isaiah 55:1-7
