Are You Listening?

Sometimes God whispers. But in the skies, He proclaims. 

“The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge.” ~ Psalm 19:1-2  

These verses came to mind several years ago when I stood on a balcony in Dubrovnik, Croatia. The blue sky caressed the horizon with such strength, beauty, and purpose. I could not help but praise our Creator.

Whether the sky is filled with wispy white clouds, a glowing sun, or a blanket of twinkling stars, the divine nature of God is speaking to us.

"For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen...." ~ Romans 1:20

God could have created boring beige skies. But He didn't.

He uses His creation to give us clues about His character, clues that cross all language barriers: 

“They have no speech, they use no words; no sound is heard from them. Yet their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.” ~ Psalm 19:3-4
