Expanses

"The heavens tell the glory of God and their vast expanses announce his handiwork," Psalm 19:1.

O, Lord, our Lord! We look up to hear all creation preaching out loud what you have done! All day long we hear their talk. Throughout the night we hear their declaration of your glory! They don't speak in English or in Hebrew or in Samoan, or in whatever. Yet, it's a loud speech in silence. A clear silence whose message reverberates around the world. And through it. They speak of you, O Lord, and of your harmony. Your law. Thank you for reviving our souls. Thank you for making us wise. Thank you rejoicing our hearts. Thank you for enlightening our eyes. Thank you for your testimony. For your precepts. Your commandments. Your rules. You give great rewards as we honor you! O Lord, our Lord, we join the heavens in your praise!

When we visit with a brother or sister today, we look up into the skies and hear their sermon. And, together, from the congregation, we give our voices to sing the confession of praise! Thank You!
