God’s Fingerprint On the Sistine, Michaelangelo painted God’s fingered thrust giving with Love the gift of Life to Man fresh from dust. First breath, beneath the Heavens! Second breath, on land and sea! From then ‘til now, a thrusted finger sculpts his Destiny. Not long ago, Instinct was his primal need and guide when smells repelled, fires frightened and lightning made him hide and stars up in the Heaven were just punctures in the night while reflections in the water were the ghosts he could not fight. Then Lightning struck and all beasts ran. He made a mental leap to stand his ground in Thunder’s roar, a choice to “not” retreat. And Nature merged with Instinct to define Creation’s goal from God’s thrusted fingerprint now stamped upon his Soul. And if Time’s compressed into a day for beasts, for Man and flowers, then Life with many a cell showed up in just the last twelve hours. And Dinosaurs walked on Earth last hour! Pre-Man, a minute or so! Modern Man, you and I only just got here less than a second ago. Still time to learn from Wisdom! Still time to shed the Fears of pain and War mourned by moms who’ve cried a billion tears. Embrace the Life that’s precious. Be proud you’re Man from dust and fashioned by the hand of God in a single fingered thrust! Namyh |

Oh Namyh, you stir the soul with your words this morning. Deeply moving an beautiful piece. So many wonder-filled things in nature ...and as you bring out, within man show this fingerprint. Sometimes I still need a reminder to see it, though. Thank you for giving me one. |

RC Frazier - After making us from dust, breathing in life and leaving His mark, maybe God was pointing to the future thus providing direction for a newly formed Man to begin his one small step for Mankind. I liked writing this and I’m so glad you enjoyed this too RC. I hope it helps when most needed and thanks for droppin’ in a spell to leave your fingerprint of "Yes". Namyh |

Ahhh Sky - Perhaps the ultimate illusion is for us to think we’re stumbling when maybe we are evolving by learning what trips us up. We seem to learn best when we screw up and make mistakes, no doubt a required component of human progress that helps define a straight line by knowing what a crooked one looks like. I’ll keep the flow flowing right out of my mind and hopefully into yours and vice versa. Thanks for your Fingerprint Sky. Namyh |

Lori - I've often been called a devil. Your recognition of the angelic within makes me definitely hear the fluttering of wings and I don't want them to stop. Thanks Lori for your slice of Heaven. Namyh |
