Psalm 104:24 ” How countless are your works, Lord! In wisdom you have made them all; the earth is full of your creatures.” (CSB)
Compare the black and white view from the photographer’s camera with the artist’s painting of the same Colorado mountain stream. What a difference!
Beautiful! But neither compares to the work of the Master Artist – God, the Creator.

Through the experiences of a shepherd boy and gifted psalmist, we praise the Creator for His workmanship. How many nights did he observe the heavens while watching his father’s sheep?
“The Heavens declare the glory of God and the skies display the work of His hands.” Psalm 19:1
“The earth and everything in it, the world and its inhabitants, belong to the Lord; for He laid its foundation on the seas and established it on the rivers.” Psalm 24:1-2
“When I observe your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you set in place.” Psalm 8:3
However, the Father’s World is more than things we see and experience. His creation is very personal.
“For it was you who created my inward parts; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I will praise you because I have been remarkably and wondrously made. Your works are wondrous, and I know this very well.” Psalm 139:13-14
Celebrate God as Creator! Let everything that has breath praise the Lord!
