| The Heavens Declare the Glory
of God "The
heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day
they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge. There is no speech or
language where their voice is not heard. Their voice goes out into all the earth. their
words to the ends of the world." Psalm 19:1-4 (NIV)

How profound is this text! Indeed,
every star announces the glory of God. Every sunrise and sunset screams that He is! Each
day and each night reveals to us something more about our glorious God, if we care to
look. What can we learn about God from the things that surround us? Every flower is a
reminder that He loves beauty. Every snowflake teaches us that He is a God of diversity.
Each seashell speaks to us of the provisions He has made for even the lowliest of His
creation. Every time we see a bird fly, we should be reminded that God has a wild
imagination and is an awesome Creator. The Sun rises day after day to let us know that the
God of the universe is consistent and trustworthy. Nature holds classes each day that all
might know that God is! Take the time today to look around you and listen to nature
telling you of the awesome God that created them. Then stop and take time to praise Him
for all the beauty that He has surrounded us with and the lessons He has taught you in
those creations. We take so much for granted each day. Let us resolve to stop and smell
the roses along lifes path and let us never forget to praise the hands that created
them for us. The heavens declare His glory, let us do the same!
