65 - Handwriting

'And the Lord answered me: “Write the vision; make it plain on tablets"' (Habakkuk 2:2)

This might seem like a funny one, but I think that even the way we write contain reasons we may thank God. 

Watching a child move from the large spiky letters they can manage as they start learning to write, onto neat and flowing handwriting can make us thankful that God gave us the brains to learn how to communicate with each other, how to hold and move a pen in such a way that the patterns it draws actually mean something. 

We can also appreciate the way each person has such a unique style of handwriting. 
Perhaps you may know someone's style so well that you can smile in pleasure when you see an envelope come through the door because you can see it's from them. 

God, thank you that You did not make us all uniform clones with no differing personality or appearance. You made us different and diverse, even down to the way we write.

Thank you Creator!
