Deep Thoughts

I got a solar powered flower from a friend of mine for my birthday today. I took it to work with me. There is a deep spiritual question that comes to mind after watching this flower. You see, it is created to run on power from the sun. So, if you set it in a window, it then moves. It's sole purpose of being created is to move when it receives power. I sat my flower in my window at work but it did not move. It is a cloudy day, with threats of thunderstorms here. I decided to take my flower outside, and see if it would move on the other side of the window. Here is what I observed. I did. Even though it is cloudy and not much sun at all, it still had some movement when on the other side of the window. My window is tinted. So here is the DEEP Thought. How many of us are "solar powered" flowers? How many of us sit in church where we see the SON, can even feel warmth from it, but we are sitting behind a tinted window (thoughts and feelings) that keep us from moving? The tints of our life keep us from receiving the POWER of the SON? If we just would allow ourselves stand on the other side of the tinted glass, how much power would we receive? Even on a cloudy day, how much movement could we make? Just a thought.
