"Call to me and I will answer you, and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know. " Jeremiah 33:3

"They know the truth about God because He has made it obvious to them. For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and the sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see His invisible qualities-His eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God." Romans 1:19-20 NLT

"I lift up my eyes to the mountains, from where does my help come? My help comes from the LORD Who made heaven and earth." Psalm 121:1-2. All of creation screams Creator!!

Not to the eyes alone does creation speak, to those who have ears to hear-God is continually speaking through what He has made.

The gentle whisper of the breeze through the pine trees, the gaiety of a mountain stream, the sunlight glistening in the water spray, sunlight and shadows play together deep in the woods and the valley floor is covered in wild flowers, the variety and color revealing the creativity and delicate hand of the Divine Artist that brought them into being. Who can behold the stalactites and stalagmites reaching for each other in a cave and not sense Someone far greater than themselves. Listen to the silence in a cave, what is it about nature that causes human beings to speak in hushed tones? It isn't the beauty of the art; it is the awareness of the Artist that brought it all into being!

An electrical storm in the Rocky Mountains sends grown men to run for cover as lightening flashes across the night sky, brighter than any fireworks display that man is capable of making. And the deafening roar of thunder makes you jump and you realize in that moment how very small we truly are.

"On the morning of the third day there were thunders and lightnings and a thick cloud on the mountain and a very loud trumpet blast, so that all the people in the camp trembled. Now Mount Sinai was wrapped in smoke because the LORD had descended on it in fire. The smoke of it went up like the smoke of a kiln, and the whole mountain trembled greatly." Exodus 19:16,18.

Who among all the people of the earth have not marveled at a sunset? That is God's spectacular way of bringing down the curtain on a another day. And for all of us morning people the sunrise fills us with hope; a brand new day God has given us on Terra firma to make a difference in someone's life and to walk before Him in righteousness.

"And God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night...And God made the two great lights-the greater light to rule the day and the lesser light to rule the night-and the stars. And God set them in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth...And God saw that it was good." Genesis 1:14,16-17.

Creation is breath taking but don't worship the creation, worship the Creator and His name is the Word of God, Jesus Christ!!!

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being." John 1:1-3.
