Amazing Wonders, Amazing God
I will praise you, Lord, with all my heart and tell about the wonders you have worked.
Psalm 9:1 (CEV)
If you go to Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming, you will see the Old Faithful geyser shoot boiling water into the air, hot spring pools in brilliant colors, and enormous bison, elk, and bears grazing by commanding mountains.
It leaves most people in awe and wonder. They look at the incredible sights and say things like, “Wow!” Some people are so amazed that it leaves them speechless.
But too many people stop there. They love the creation, but don’t stop to think about the God who created it all!
For some people, it’s just explainable science: the geyser blows because of built-up hot water and air pressure, the bison evolved to be there, and the mountains are just piles of rocks pushed up by tectonic plates shifting. While all of this is how it works, they miss the why and who behind it all.
God created all these things. He did it to teach us, to inspire us, to amaze us. There’s no scientific reason for the variety of animals or the many colors of flowers. Through God’s wonders, we see his creativity, his power, his beauty, and his love for us. These wonders should make us say, “Wow! Look at God!”
SPIRITUAL FITNESS TRAINING
Spend some time enjoying one of God’s wonders near you. It can be as big as a park or river or as small as a ladybug crawling on a leaf. Tell a friend about it . . . and the God who made it!
PRAY
God, thank you for the wonders in Yellowstone and in my own neighborhood. I praise you today!
