Read Romans 1:20 and Psalm 8:1

His eternal power and divine nature have been seen since the creation of the world! I see this divine nature so often in the beauty of nature. My husband says God woos us this way. I am often brought to tears by the flow of the river, the majesty of the mountain, the peace of the ocean or the regal stance in a large bird of rapture. The sunrise is so beautiful, I often declare to myself, God is so good!

My husband and I talk about nature existing solely to offer back pure praise to God. We marvel at how the creatures and things of nature are doing exactly what God has designed them to do! The flowers are growing up to praise God. The tress are standing strong to praise God. The fish swim to praise God. All nature exists just the way God designed them. What would that look like for me? What was I designed to do? I recently read in a book by Brennan Manning that others will know we are Christians by our love. This is such a theme in my life: love for others. I have prayer aligned to this: Use me up Lord. Use my hands Lord, they are your hands. Help me love others with an authencity true to your life, Lord.

For me…… to exist to praise God the way he made me is not only loving his creation for its majesty……..but loving his people for their majesty!

….how majestic is your name in all the earth! Psalm 8:1
