Podcast 23.2 Transcript
Welcome to Thursday Thoughts at Resonant 7, where we reflect on the reality of God and resolve to let it resound in our lives, repeatedly. Let’s think about this.
Summer and winter
And springtime and harvest
You have fixed all the boundaries of the earth; you have made summer and winter. Psalm 74:17 ESV
The seasons are an incredible expression of the faithfulness of God. As surely as one ends another begins. He made them just like He fixed all the laws that govern His creation. Take a moment to allow the season you are in now to speak of the faithfulness of God.
Sun moon and stars
In their courses above
The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge. Psalm 19:1-4 ESV
Not to be outdone by the seasons, the celestial bodies get in on declaring God’s faithfulness as well. As surely as the sun sets it will rise again. This proclaims His handiwork and invites us to respond with our worship. Go outside, look up, and marvel anew at God’s glory.
Join with all nature
In manifold witness
O Lord, how manifold are your works! In wisdom have you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures. Psalm 104:24 ESV
Many and varied indeed are the ways that all nature witnesses to the faithfulness of God, joining the seasons and the heavens in their adoration. Your life is a part of that witness. Determine right now how you will exercise that opportunity to enter into the praise today.
To Thy great faithfulness
Mercy and love
To him who by understanding made the heavens, for his steadfast love endures forever; Psalm 136:5 ESV
This phrase is one of a litany of why we should give thanks to the Lord for His goodness. As you consider how you will join the worship today, take a moment to consider a few of the many reasons why you should. That consideration should provide you with ample inspiration.
Take a few moments to talk to Jesus about what has come to your mind, or listen to what He is saying to you, then I will read our text once more, with the refrain.
Summer and winter
And springtime and harvest
Sun moon and stars
In their courses above
Join with all nature
In manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness
Mercy and love
Take the mindfulness of God’s presence cultivated in these last few minutes into the next ones and beyond. Until next time, Be Resonant.
