I was planning a different post for today until I saw the prompt word from my Sponsor. My heart raced and I was already getting ideas on what to write on. So, I don't want to lose those ideas, I started jotting everything down and my mind was like "hit the publish button, you can do other post later. Lol" and that was why I made it here today titled "Nature"
God created everything in the world. He made the light, water, sun, moon, land, animals etc and including human beings. And do you know that "everything He created were wonderful and beautiful?." (Genesis 1:18)
Among those He created beautifully was Nature. What is Nature? What can we classify as Nature? Come over here, grab a seat and let's dive in. Princess is ready to take you round Nature created by this Big God!
Nature is something beautiful, attractive, original. When we move around, we see nature around us. He made everything with purpose. Nothing on this Earth was without a purpose and that is why He is the great God who has provided everything for human beings.
Let's take a look at most of these natures.
TREES
This is one of the nature God has blessed human beings with especially the leaves on the tree for our own consumption. He gave us these leaves to make as herbs for us to live healthy. He made them as food for us so we could eat and survive.
Whenever I see the trees flying and wavering their bodies around with the support of the fresh air breathing into them, I want to believe they are also in their own ways praising God.
WATERFALLS
Water is something we cannot do without. When we go to the beach, river, stream, ocean, we see the flowing waters. Water from the North, East, West and South. They keep flowing and never looked back. The water is so clean that we just want to keep touching them and feeling the warmth in us.
I remembered visiting the waterfall in my hometown, I was dumbfounded to see that we have a waterfall in my hometown. It was just a wonderful experience to see nature. I love the water that springs out from the rock and walls.
FLOWERS
This is one nature I would always love to have around myself or as a decoration in my home. Seeing different flowers like; Rose, Dahlia, Tulips, Chrysanthemum, Sunflower, Orchid, Daffodils, Marigold etc. Their beautiful and romantic scents and how the bees surrounds themselves with beauty in the flowers.
VEGETATION
According to Oxford Dictionary, these are plants considered collectively especially those found in a particular area or habitat.
Moving around these places would make you feel some kind of love and healings from within. They are so cool and warm to keep standing and gazing at them. They are just too awesome.
Another thing I found as nature are the BIRDS.
We all have different kinds of birds and especially these beautiful ones.
We have kinds of birds like;
Waterfowl
Mousebird
Kingfisher
Hummingbird
Pigeons
Cuckoos
Cuckoo Rollers
Kagus
Falcons
Cranes and Rails
Hoatzins etc
These birds have sweet voices that when they sing into your hearing, you already melt. Their tiny voices will remind you of how wonderful God made them.
Let's talk about something else about Nature apart from all of these.
In Personality Development we were taught while in my 200 level, we have the determinants of Personality which are "NATURE AND NURTURE".
While Nature is what is being inherited from the family like color, race, intelligence, behavior and characters. Nurture is the environmental influences being derived from experiences.
Nature is something in us. What we mostly do and exhibit. Let's take for example; when it's my personality to always do good and be kind to people, I would say it's in my nature to do it. Same thing when you have the nature to be mean and dangerous to people around you.
These natures can be gotten from the family either the father or mother. One of the children will somehow takes after either of the parents. So therefore, nature can be inherited.
IN CONCLUSION
Nature has its own way of helping us and relieving us from every pains and problems in our lives. In other way, we have lessons to learn from every Nature God has blessed us with. We need to take care of every Nature around us. When we are depressed or feeling life isn't worth it, find time to visit Nature and you will understand that your problems are so tiny in God's presence. You don't have to keep blaming yourself over every circumstances in your way, Nature has a way of encouraging you and lifting your soul up.
