"Before the mountains were born or You brought forth the whole world, from everlasting to everlasting You are God." -Psalm 90:2 (NIV)
Sometimes we take things for granted. We can look at the trees, the grass, the plants, the birds, and many other parts of God's creation without stopping to think twice. We can even drive or fly over mountains without thinking too much about them. However, if we have the opportunities to stand at the base of a mountain and look up or at the top of the mountain looking out, we may have a different perspective of the greatness and power needed to create the mountains and the rest of creation!
When we look out over God's creation, we can see God in the complexity and intricate relationships around us. No matter our surroundings, God's creation can allow us different glimpses of God, but the story of God is much larger than just His creation. God existed before there was creation. God chose to create the universe and everything in it and even though we may debate the processes He uses to create, we can know that God cares for His creation. He even sent His Son to redeem creation and save it from sin! As we stop to marvel at the tallest mountains or recapture a sense of wonder from exploring the smaller parts of creation, we can be reminded that all has come from God, who has always and will always be the one and only true God!
Marvel at the mountains, but be reminded that they are the handiwork of the everlasting God!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for creating me and for loving Your creation. Help me to always remember You as the Creator and help me to have the right perspective of You and Your creation. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
