When I feel the warmth of the powerful
earth-sustaining sun, comfort of the moon’s nightlight, and wonder of the
twinkling stars on an indigo night, I know I’m part of a grand design. When I
see clouds, from the common cumulus to the rippling waves of asperitas and hear
rumbling, crashing thunder and rain dance on rooftops, I know I can depend on
Someone beyond myself. When I look out on rugged mountains, ridge after ridge,
deserts with a wide variety of cactus, glistening seas filled with mystery and
rolling green forests and fields with rushing rivers, silvery streams and
waterfalls, I know simple me can trust a complicated Someone. When I think of
earth’s details: vibrant oranges, yellows, reds of autumn, lace-like snow
dressing up bare branches, and a multitude of worlds of seashells, trees,
rocks, pebbles, sand, and creatures, I know I worship a majestic God. When I
think of the intricacies of the microscopic world, including how human cells
function, I know He is big enough to care for small. When I think of the
earth’s vast bouquet of flowers in all colors, patterns, and fragrances, I know
He is One of beauty, creativity, and love.

Couldn’t do to what God did when
He spoke, “Let there be…”
