“When
the morning stars sang together” Job 38:7 KJV
Here’s that raucous creation out
singing praises to God again. And why would they be doing that? They could be
doing it because He is worthy of praise at all times. They could be doing it
because He created them with something to do and they are glad to be about the
Father’s business. Note that when God made the sun, moon and stars, He gave
them jobs to do. They were to give light, be signs for seasonal changes and
make us aware of days and years. The stars were also made to give directions as
every sailor knows.
God didn’t just make nature for a
purpose; He made us for a purpose as well. Our chief purpose is to give praise
to His glory as Paul told the Ephesians three times. Paul said in First
Corinthians that the Holy Spirit gave every believer at least one spiritual
gift to profit the entire church. Jesus said that we have the job of being salt
and light in this world. If we ever feel that we are not important God wants to
assure us that we have lots to do. We can praise Him for giving us purpose
every day.
Dear
Father, Thank You for giving me a purpose in life. Amen.
