So I was staying at the hotel in Boca Raton. Took a break in the early afternoon to swim. I didn't have to report for work until 3pm.
So I am hopping back and forth from the pool to the hot tub and I notice something on this palm tree. By the way, this is a story about paying attention. About seeing incredible things that are around us that often go unnoticed. It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good. So I looked at the palm tree and I saw this...
Can you see it???
Now let me zoom in. A pretty big iguana.
Probably 3' long...
As a common young man from Missouri, seeing an iguana seems like a big deal. It was kind of exciting to see it. I think that they are an invasive species. I know that in Nicaragua, when we went there on mission trips, people would catch them and eat them.
Anyway, the moral of this story is to keep looking at what is around you. The beauty and amazingness of God's world is there if we just open our eyes.
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
