Nature is Half a Missionary

There is no speech nor language where there voice is not heard.” Psalm 19:3
One careful look at nature, its scope, its power, its order, and its intricacy clearly reveal the hand of there being but one Creator, God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth. Paul states in Romans 1 that a simple view of nature leaves everyone without excuse for not worshipping the one true God. The psalmist says there is no land or language where the clear voice of nature fails to declare the glory of God.
What nature cannot reveal, however, is the full redemption story of the Father sending the Son to be the Savior of the world. For that message to be known God has charged us to add our voices to His in the proclamation of His great love for mankind in sending His Son to die for our sins. Creation proclaims His glory and we, His new creation, proclaim the Gospel story.

Dear Father, Help us gladly proclaim Christ as Your creation boldly proclaims Your glory. Amen.
