The Heavens Praise His Name



My daughter Hannah took this photo today of the clouds over our house from the backyard.

I thought this picture says more than a thousand words. Sunlight, blue sky, dark clouds all wrapped up together.....much like life itself. Celebration and lament, joy and grief, companionship and sorrow. It only makes sense that the world reflects the Creator. Or as John says in the first chapter of his gospel:

2 He was in the beginning with God; 3 all things were made through him, and without him was not anything made that was made. 4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men.

Or as the Psalmist says in Psalms 89:

5 Let the heavens praise thy wonders, O LORD, thy faithfulness in the assembly of the holy ones! 6 For who in the skies can be compared to the LORD? Who among the heavenly beings is like the LORD

There is something inside of me at times that resonates when I look up into the heavens. The heavens do praise the wonders of the Creator. We are not alone.
