God's grandeur!

Mike Hayes who writes GooglingGod is attending a conference at Notre Dame for those who work in campus and young adult ministry. Here's a snip from a fine reflection Mike posted after Evening Prayer in Sacred Heart Basilica:

But then, it happened…

I walked out of the Basilica on the Notre Dame Campus and there it was…

God’s grandeur. The grass was not only a deep, deep green but each blade seemed distinct and unique. The behemoth trees were filled with a vibrancy of bark and leaves and the veins that ran through each individual leaf.

In the distance the setting sun called to me… don’t miss this… don’t miss this.

What Mike wrote about each blade of grass reminds me of some lyrics I posted last spring, including the lines:

A blade of grass, a blade of green,
a blade of life beneath my step,
warmed by the sun, fed by the rain,
held by a universe of love...

Mike didn't miss the beauty of my favorite campus and you shouldn't miss his post which develops the theme of Fr. Edward Beck's reflection at Evening Prayer. And if that isn't enough to tease you over to Mike's page, consider that the title of his post is, How Many Husbands Do You Have?
