• Creation is not just to sustain us and nourish us, but to astound us and call us to worship its Author!

• Praise God’s nearness AND His "aboveness!"

• When creation astounds you, praise its Author!

• As you contemplate the majesty of God, remember your significance to God!

"The dignity of humans is a gift of God and requires a relationship of responsibility as well as a response of praise to our good Creator."

Psalms 19:1 CSB
1 The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky proclaims the work of his hands.

• God created for His glory and for our benefit. Creation is for US, not the other way around.

• Remember that Jesus IS the Majesty of God.

Hebrews 1:3 NASB
3 ... He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power.

• God Himself has come to rescue and renew all creation through the work of Jesus. This gospel saves us and continues to save us.

• Creation is meant not only to sustain us, nourish us, and astound us, but also to call us to worship the God Who loves us!

• Look up, Remember, Worship.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:
