Today's Encouraging Words
Wonders of Creation
“Praise the Lord. How good it is to sing praises to our God, how pleasant and fitting to praise him! The Lord builds up Jerusalem; he gathers the exiles of Israel. He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. He determines the number of the stars and calls them each by name. Great is our Lord and mighty in power; his understanding has no limit. The Lord sustains the humble but casts the wicked to the ground. Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving; make music to our God on the harp. He covers the sky with clouds; he supplies the earth with rain and makes grass grow on the hills. He provides food for the cattle and for the young ravens when they call. His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse, nor his delight in the legs of a man; the Lord delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love.” (Psalm 147:1-11)
“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” (Genesis 1:1) “The land must not be sold permanently, because the land is Mine and you are but aliens and my tenants.” (Leviticus 25:23) “The earth is the Lord's, and all its fullness, the world and those who dwell therein.” (Psalm 24:1)
Without question, the most significant difference between the worldview of the Bible and the beliefs of secular humanism is the Christian understanding that God made the earth and it belongs to Him. What comes of this belief is significant. When we are users and occupiers of property that belongs to someone else, we rightfully consider the interests of the owner as well as our own. In fact, as tenants and stewards, our own interests are secondary to that of the owner. Our challenge in any use of the land, air, time or life that belongs to God is to ask how we can use what He has made so that we will honor Him and find joy for ourselves.
Trust In Him
All creation points to the Almighty Creator!
Have A Great God Day!
