Psalm 19 in Fenland


 
It was good to return home tonight after a long day. The skies in the Fens are amazing. Psalm 19 came to mind:

Psalm 19 King James Version (KJV)

 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork

When God paints the sky, you are seeing the Master Designer in action, and for a moment in time, you are catching a glimpse of His glory.

It’s right there before our very eyes. Day after day. One of the greatest defenses of the faith — God’s creation.

David, the man after God’s own heart, found great solace in God at work in creation — 

The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display His craftsmanship. Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make Him known. They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard. Yet their message has gone throughout the earth, and their words to all the world. God has made a home in the heavens for the sun. It bursts forth like a radiant bridegroom after his wedding. It rejoices like a great athlete eager to run the race. The sun rises at one end of the heavens and follows its course to the other end. Nothing can hide from its heat.

Psalm 19:1-6 NLT
