We’ve learned to remembered those things God has done in our personal life.
Now
David reminds us to be thankful for all God has done from
the beginning of the Universe down through the ages.
So let’s start with the sun in the morning and the stars at night
The shepherd boy David spent his nights and days in the fields watching the beauty of nature. He wrote Psalms 19 in gratitude and praise of God’s work in the creation of the heavens and earth. Most of us spend way to much time in our office, homes and cars shielded from the beauty of nature. And in many ways, I think those walls separate us from realizing the glory of God.
Davids Word’s
The heaven are recounting the honour of God, And the work of His hands The expanse is declaring
The beauty of the night sky with stars sprinkled across the expanse far beyond what we can imagine reminds us of the mightiness of our God. His power and strength are mightier than any force we know; because all forces that we know were created by Him.
Exercise 1
Find time to sit outside one night. Study the heavens and thank God for creating the Heavens and Earth. Write down in your journal what the vastness of the night makes you thank about God.
Exercise 2
During the day, walk where you can see grass, trees and flowers. Notice the beauty of the plants and the diversity of life. Inside all life is a code with specific instructions regarding the design of that specific blade of grass, flower, bug, animal or even person.
God is a God of details. He counts the hairs on our head and knows when a sparrow falls. (Matthew 10) Praise God that he is not just some Spirit who put the world in motion and left it to spin on it’s own. Our God cares about the small things. Our God cares about even the small things in our lives.
Write down in your journal what thoughts occur to you as you realize that God cares about the details of your life.
