"Ah, Sovereign LORD, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you.” Jeremiah 32:17
What about nature inspires you the most? Is it an orderly processional of ants loaded with crumbs? What about a field of flowers? Perhaps a sunrise or sunset? To this day I regret the time I stepped on a spider that was scurrying across my kitchen floor because when I did, hundreds of itty bitty spider babies scattered from underneath their squished momma in all directions. I almost criedL
But what really inspires me is two things: Animal babies and human babies. I especially love elephant babies, and I have yet to smell a newborn whose scent did not intoxicate me. One of you DEVO readers actually told me not to lick your baby when it was born. AS IF!!!
Nature is there as a testament to the grandness and greatness of God. The very same Lord who created hairless cats, snowfall, and the Grand Canyon, is the One Who listens to and answers prayer. If you are feeling down because the answer has not arrived…if you are wondering whether or not God has the power to help…if you are at the end of your rope waiting waiting waiting, then fret no more. Open your eyes today to the vastness of creation and tell yourself that GOD IS AWESOME AND POWERFUL. Do not give up; He cares for you.
PRAYER:
Dear Lord, Nature is amazing and taking time to enjoy it strengthens our faith in You. And just like the verse above says, we invite You to stretch out Your arm and with Your great power make something happen in our lives today. We need You to restore order and peace. If we ever doubt it, prompt us to look out the window and up in the sky at the sun where we will remind ourselves that if You could do that, then nothing is impossible for You. In Jesus’ name, AMEN~
