Devotional Reflection
We can feel the hand of the Master everywhere. We can see it in the world's order, beauty, and vast variety. The vastness of space with its billions of stars and the amazing world of the microscopic show that the Orderer is very creative. God has left traces of Himself all over the world, so we know He has been here and won't give up on what He has made. But will we respond to this beauty by trying to live by the ways of the Great Orderer of the universe and choosing to show His righteous character, gracious compassion, and loving justice?
Prayer
Thank you, God, for all that You have made. I appreciate its splendor and variety. Thank You for the beauty of spring and the varying seasons. I want to thank You most of all for choosing to manifest Yourself to us, Your creatures. We promise to return Your grace with sacrificial love. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
What a wonderful place to live! The vastness of space makes you feel small. The beauty of the mountaintops makes us gasp for air.
