Creation Sings

Sing a new song to the Lord! Let the whole earth sing to the Lord! Sing to the Lord; praise his name. Each day proclaim the good news that he saves. Publish his glorious deeds among the nations. Tell everyone about the amazing things he does. Great is the Lord! He is most worthy of praise! He is to be feared above all gods. The gods of other nations are mere idols, but the Lord made the heavens! Honor and majesty surround him; strength and beauty fill his sanctuary. Let the heavens be glad, and the earth rejoice! Let the sea and everything in it shout his praise! Let the fields and their crops burst out with joy! Let the trees of the forest rustle with praise. Psalm 96:1-12
Everywhere you go during this glorious season, you can’t help but be drawn to the joyful expressions of creation. The cherry blossoms stretch out their limbs to embrace the heavens. The Fritillarias bow their heads in humble adoration as they are resurrected for yet another spring. The ferns break our their fiddles to join in this orchestra of colors. What a wonderful world we live in!
