THE GLORY OF THE LORD

"The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands." - Psalm 19:1

Frequently, I walk a mile in the early morning. I love feeling the early morning air, seeing the dew on the grass and hearing the birds singing, all in the quiet of the morning. I sometimes pause to take in the glorious view of the sun coming up over the horizon. How awesome that God creates views like this!

Often we are too busy to notice the creative work of God. We are so caught up in our daily routines, with the hustle and bustle of our lives, that we do not stop for even a moment to take in what God has created - the heavens and the earth. When we slow down enough to observe God's handiwork, we will be filled with praise and be ready to live each day with a sense of awe at the glory of our God.

Dear Lord, thank You for creating the beautiful and majestic heavens and earth to help me know You more deeply. Help me never forget to give the glory to You. In the name of our Lord and Savior, Amen.
