RESOLUTIONS: Draw closer to God through nature

RESOLUTIONS: Draw closer to God through nature

 

  Spend time communing with God through nature . Observe the beauty in

the world that God has made for us.  To

see a glimpse of His power in the expanse of the ocean and its relentless waves

that pound the seashore; to breath in the sweetness of the majestic mountains

with their laurels, so breathtakingly beautiful that we, like Jacob, will say, “Surely

the Lord is in this place.”    Feel

the spider web’s strength.  Listen as the

songbirds serenade.  Smell a newborn

baby, the smell of a puppy.  Watch the

floating clouds and the beautiful sunset. 

Stand in the summer’s shower and taste the rain.  By observing God’s creation, our faith in Him

and in His power is reinforced.  Psalm

19:1 – “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His

handiwork.”

Make a resolution to slow down and smell the roses.
