God's Gift of Visual Delights

"Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving; 
Sing praises to our God on the lyre, Who covers the heavens with clouds, Who provides rain for the earth, Who makes grass to grow on the mountains."
Psalm 147:7-8


Do you like to window shop? I do. I like to stroll past stores and look at the various window displays. No matter how beautiful they may be, though, displays in merchant windows cannot begin to compare with God's heavenly production. After the rain last night, the sky burst forth with His glory. He dipped His artist's brush in His marvelous pallet and painted an extraordinarily beautiful scene. It is enough that the Lord waters the earth and causes the grass to grow on our mountain. But I love the fact that God doesn't stop there. He blesses us with visual delights, too. What visual delight has God given you lately?

  1. The other night the moon lit up our back yard completely! There were a few wisps of clouds surrounding the pale yellow orb and it was breathtaking! Ryan and I had seats front and center in our hammock!
