The days are getting longer as the sun makes its journey north.
The temperatures are trending higher.
Spring is coming! Look up! Look around! See hope! See glory!
See 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 reveal knowledge.
They have no speech, they use no words;
no sound is heard from them.
Yet their voice goes out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.
Psalm 19:1-4a NIV
***
Nature is too thin a screen;
the glory of the omnipresent God bursts through everywhere.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
***
For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—
his eternal power and divine nature—
have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made,
so that people are without excuse.
Romans 1:20 NIV
***
There is a signature of wisdom and power impressed on the works of God,
which evidently distinguishes them from the feeble imitations of men.–
Not only the splendor of the sun,
but the glimmering light of the glowworm, proclaims his glory.
John Newton
***
Shout for joy to God, all the earth!
Sing the glory of his name;
make his praise glorious.
All the earth bows down to you;
they sing praise to you,
they sing the praises of your name.”
Psalm 66: 1-2, 4 NIV
