Reading: Psalm 95: 5
Reflection: Look around you. What do you see? Hopefully you are in an outdoor setting as you read this. If so, you may see trees, leaves, perhaps a small animal. If you are inside, go to a window. Look out and observe your surroundings. Listen to the sounds in the air. Do you hear birds singing? The wind blowing? Maybe you can hear music in the distance. What song is playing? What song is playing in your heart? Feel the warm breeze on your skin. Is it refreshing? What else around you can you touch? Feel the different textures. Smell the sweet aromas that encircle your private space. What do they smell like? Do those smells take you back to days of old, remind you of places you’ve been, people you know, things that you have done. Are they pleasing smells? Or are they odorous? Would you rather not be smelling what you smell right now. The sun rose this morning. In all its splendor, it marked the end of the hours of darkness and reminds us that God’s grace and mercies are delivered to us new each day. Just as Jesus, the son, rose from the dead to give us new life, so the sun rises each day, giving birth to a new day; a fresh beginning. God has painted a picture for us. It is there for us to enjoy each and every day. It’s titled, “Creation” and is the gallery we call earth. Can you see God in your surroundings? Do you feel God’s presence? Be still and know that God is there. Even before earth was created in seven days, God was there. God will be there until the end. God is the Alpha and the Omega. Worship the one who brought this marvelous creation to you. In this upcoming month of colorful leaves and another beautiful season of creation, take some time to enjoy it!
