We are witnesses to the magnificence of the heavens and the beauty of creation. From the pigment of the robin's breast to each crease made in a smiling face's skin, not one detail is unaccounted for. With our eyes we see all of this and are able to imagine that we are but specs of dust.
The sound of rain bouncing of the leaves of trees and the pleasant tune flowing from the reverberations of strings strummed and plucked beg our ears to listen to what the sounds might say.
We are given warmth and comfort in the arms of our loved ones. Cool blades of grass tickle our backs as we lay outside and take in the fresh Spring air. These tangible qualities push us towards a wonderful consideration.
The tastes and aromas dance along the palate bringing to mind sensations of sweet and sour, bitter and savory. The fruit of the earth is found in such delicious forms as a gift to us.
In fact, all of creation sings to the glory of our Creator. And our creator is a God of love.
What foolishness we speak in attempting to attribute a masterpiece to anything short of a Divine Artisan. Who are we to ignore the testimony of the mountains and the stars, or the declaration of all living things?
The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork -Psalm 19:1.
Yet even if we would ignore such things as nature's proclamation of a Creator, the truth is written on our hearts.
Praise be to God for his awesome power and the beautiful creation that He has allowed us to be apart of. Lord I ask that you would forgive us for destroying what you made as good and for creating evil through our sins. Thank you so much for giving us your grace through Jesus when we deserved only wrath. I pray that we would hear the song of creation, singing of your glory.
