Of Heaven's Declarations...
This morning I can't help but lament a little, (a lot!!) because exhaustion drew me to my bed last nightwhile others stayed up and watched a grand display of aurora borealis/northern lights...but I did grab a few declarations of God's glory earlier while mowing lawns!
and one this morning!
The heavens are pitched like a tent that often captures our gazeThe surface of yon firmament evokes worship’s unsullied praiseMasterpiece after masterpiece in a glorious free-for-allProclaims a Name that will not cease as generations rise and fall
The glory the heavens declare is by and for the LORD aloneWithout a word beyond compare, He makes His Holy presence knownSo that all are without excuse; with universal eloquenceThe heavens speak; God’s glory loosed in constant, simple evidence
Beyond the reach of human hands, the heavens grant a glimpse of HeWhose thoughts and ways none understands; who ever Was, Is and Will BeHis glory the heavens declare, His Handiwork second to noneHis divine testament set where it can be seen by everyone

It's thrilling to think about how many worshippers witnessGod's glory every day; how, each time we marvel, we worship Him, the Creator!
Psalm 19:1-4The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
2 Day after day they pour forth speech;
night after night they reveal knowledge.
3 They have no speech, they use no words;
no sound is heard from them.
4 Yet their voice[] goes out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.
As I lamented/envied the night-owls, treated to a rare show for Ontario-ansI recalled to mind this little gem by Edgar A. Guest
...on that note, let's take whatever fun/joy comes our way todayand be thankful, and leave the rest to others!!💝
I am hoping for the joy of freshly washed and waxed floors 😅
