their whole array by the breath of his mouth;
he collects the ocean waters as though in a wineskin,
he stores the deeps in cellars."
Psalm 33:6-7
When I stop to watch the sunset or get up to see the sunrise I'm almost always amazed by the glory that is revealed within each and every one. This past summer there were moments that simply left me breathless as I watched the hands of God unfold beauty right before my eyes. Many of those times I was by myself and it was as if God was doing it just for me. When you are a witness to those moments of glory it is hard not to believe in a creating God who has not just created but continues to create.
Maybe one of the reasons why we have drifted so far away form God is because we have closed our eyes to the glory that is this world. We go to Disneyland for vacations, to museums, or great cities to be tempted by the pleasures of man rather than to sit in awe under the canopy of heaven and witness the unfolding glory of the word spoken into creation. Maybe it is time to remember again how small we are and how large this God is that has created the earth that we are able to live upon.
