I simply love this piece. It is so worthy of sharing with anyone, but especially with my grandson, who has worked in a pet store, and understands aquariums. Thank you for caring so much about your work that you share your thoughts and ideas in wonderful, understandable prose. I read your work, and am uplifted, or challenged, nearly every time.

Finding God in Unexpected Places – I believe that was the name of your book where I read about your aquarium many years ago. I have shared this modern parable of the incarnation more times than I can count over the years, though not exactly or so eloquently as you wrote it. Still works for me – God’s ultimate way to show us it’s all about love for us. Thanks for reminding me. Great Christmas message!!

Your simple yet profound observations have opened my mind to a new appreciation for God and His care for His creation, including me.

This is great. I finally gave up on keeping ordinary goldfish because the maintenance was too burdensome, and despite my best efforts the fish would die. Your situation seems 100x more complex. Then, we try to take it up a level to God…
