Creation: Third Day: Land and Seas, Flowers and Trees


 “For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.” Isaiah 55:12 KJV
The Bible repeatedly describes a very exuberant creation. I love to hike, but I think I would really be freaked out if the ground I was walking on suddenly began to sing. What if the trees in the forest burst out in the “Hallelujah Chorus”? How about all those beautiful prairie flowers belting out an anthem of praise for their one solitary day of beauty? Jesus said the most regal king has never looked as good as the lowly flower of the field.
God was really putting things together for man. He made light, air, land, sea, grass and flowers and fruit trees. He took a lot of care in preparing a world that would be just right for us. He thought of every need we would have and made sure we would lack nothing before he put us here. That same God is still caring for us today. He wants us to respond back to Him as does the rest of His creation. He desires our praise. Maybe we can’t hear the praise songs that nature sings, but we should certainly make sure that God hears the songs of praise we sing.

Dear Father, All of Your creation sings Your praise; let me not be silent. Amen.
