We are grasshoppers

We heard and eventually saw so many grasshoppers today; Rachel even repeated her trick of catching them without squishing them.

They get on with their lives and business unconcerned about what else is going on above the grass. I wonder, do they think about those who shade their lives?

Isaiah spoke about our relationship with God and referred to us as grasshoppers. Today it all makes so much more sense.

Isaiah 40:21-22
God sits enthroned above the circle of the earth, and its people are like grasshoppers.
