“…who hast set thy glory above the
heavens” Psalms 8:1
God’s creation all
around us shouts the praises of the Creator and reflects His beauty, wisdom and
power. Yet the Creator is greater than His creation! He is the source of it,
and though we may with breathtaking wonder, be in awe of the physical evidence
which fills our senses and confronts our sensibilities, our admiration should
turn quickly to the One who made it all! Some men and women spend a lifetime in
study, research and observation, of just one small aspect of this wondrous
creation, without ever plumbing its depths or fully comprehending it. Conversely
and woefully, most men and women, spend not a moment to consider the love,
wonder and brilliance of the Creator God! It is good for us to consider the
masterpiece and benefit from its beauty and grandeur, but it is even better to acknowledge,
praise and worship the Maker, Designer and Builder of it all. However grandiose, we must not like some, make
the mistake of worshipping the created works of nature, rather than the Creator! God’s
glory is reflected in the work He does, but is above the work, in greatness and
magnitude. It is the Lord’s ability, power and majesty which should most amaze,
thrill and bless us, and should cause us to want to know the Artist personally!
