Pensées sur le Verset du Jour...
Le toucher de la main du Maître est tout autour de nous. Nous le voyons dans l'ordre, la beauté et l'éblouissante variété de la création. La grande étendue de l'espace, avec ses milliards d'étoiles, ainsi que le monde incroyable du microscopique sont autant de témoignages d'un Orderer d'une grande créativité. Dieu a laissé ses empreintes digitales partout dans son monde afin que nous puissions savoir qu'il a été ici et qu'il n'abandonnera pas le travail de ses mains.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
The touch of the Master's hand is all around us. We can see it in the order, beauty, specificity, and dazzling variety of creation. The great expanse of space, with its billions of stars, along with the incredible world of the microscopic, is all testimony to an Orderer of great creativity and inestimable power. Our heavenly Father has left his fingerprints all over his world, his creation, his universe, so we can know that he has been here and will not abandon the work of his hands. But, will we respond to this beauty in creation by seeking to live by the ways of the Great Orderer, the Creator of the universe, or will we choose for ourselves, or something else, to replace God? Will we choose to reflect his righteous character, gracious compassion, and loving justice over asserting our human arrogance and destructive self-will? God has revealed himself, and we are without excuse. Will we choose our own way, or God's?
Ma Prière...
Ô Dieu, merci pour ta création. Merci pour sa beauté et sa variété. Merci pour le changement des saisons et la beauté du printemps. Mais surtout, merci d'avoir choisi de te montrer à nous, tes créatures. Au nom de Jesus. Amen.
My Prayer...
O God, thank you for your creation. Thank you for its beauty and variety. Thank you for the changing seasons and the beauty of Spring and Autumn. Most of all, thank you for choosing to show yourself to us, your creatures, in the things you have created. We pledge to respond to such bountiful grace with loving obedience. We commit our lives and this prayer of thanks to you, in the name of Jesus. Amen.
