Nature in the process of becoming

Group 1.

Here we tried to make analogy between the dynamism in the nature and our process of becoming.

We find beauty and a process in nature, for instance, the mystery of flowers is beyond what we can understand. There is always change in different aspects of their growth; germination, growth, blooming, flowering, and seedling. The same can be true of our human becoming, physically, psychologically, intellectually and spiritually, as a flower plant grows, bloom, flowers and give seed when properly watered and given manure. Looking ourselves, it is progress.  There is the fact of becoming, we are not end products, we are not yet completely done rather we are a project in a process. And it helps us to see and acknowledge where, who, we are and going. And we become with enough potential to do so many things. This Reflection channels us to understand in charge of these changes in nature that there is an intelligent designer Who keeps order of this dynamism in nature. From nature to supernatural (transcendence)... Dynamism in nature leads us to understand God

GROUP 2

DYNAMISM OF LIFE IN NATURE AND IN HUMAN BEINGS

Nature and the human being are dynamic and this leads to various reflections in the quest for answers. On this note, members of this group shared their various thoughts on this dynamism of life in nature and in human beings.

·         Reflecting on nature, I am left with a sense of wonder

·         Watching closely at the hen of my Grandfather as I child, I could not understand how they knew when it was time to fly to the tree to sleep and how they come to know it’s time to come down in the morning.

·         When I was in secondary school having practical’s in osmosis with a Pawpaw, I was observing and could notice that at a point the Pawpaw fruit was filled with water even though no one put water in it. This led me in appreciating the wonder of God and all he had created. Also connecting this to my life, my Dad died when I was very young and I lived with different brothers and family relations and presently, when I reflect on my life I see God’s hand in it. Just as he helps plants to grow, he had helped me in ways in which I can’t comprehend.

·         Studying reproduction in Biology, a big dynamism is noticed on how created beings develop in different stages of life with the example of human beings as from sperm to human.

·         A baby dove at a point in time, is pushed away by the mother to fly. No one teaches these young ones how to fly and it’s a wonder to behold which we can’t really fathom.

·         Having an accident in which I broke my arm keeps me wondering how the bone formed again knowing that it was a multiple fracture and some parts broken into dust.

COMMENTS AFTER THE READING

In the universe, we come to realize the harmony which exists (everything having its time and season) of which we human beings are part of. Thus nature shows us the wonder of God. Again, the sun is one of the smallest stars in our galaxy which supplies life and energy to our huge earth. This wonder leads us to the realization that there is a God who created all things and that all will return to this ultimate source from which they came.

Group 3 

Human life is dynamic, if one of our family(friends)sick, and died, we couldn't forget. because every we think of about the one who died. That mean, the problem of refusing to accept the the reality.Somethimes we forget there is life after resurrection. when our dear beloved ones passed away

It's normal to and crying, but only for short time. Because our sadness, if it takes for long time sure God will not about us.

Life is season: Trees give levees and also it become plants with big fruits, we can learn many things, when the tree become growing and  after some moment will died .When we come back to our selves sometimes we discourage and sometimes we will be happy.

 Therefore our goal principle is one point, life is moving to omega, it gives us hope, because it's leads us to God. So the suffering of what we have, we have to offer to him, because he will free us.
