Taking time to be quiet

When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, (Psalm 8:3 NIV)

God is saying that we can learn so much about Him just by observing nature.

Sometimes I need to shut out the world, by going to a quiet place in nature somewhere and reflecting on God's goodness. Just soaking in the sound and beauty of nature and allowing it to talk to me!

How can I not believe His existence?

This is why the Psalmist said, “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God” (Psalm 14:1).

Father, thank you for Your constant reminder. 

E rui totoka!

During quiet time today I sat listening to this song.

Lord You're more precious then silver

Lord You're more costly than gold

Lord You're more beautiful than others

Nothing that I desire compares with You



You're fairer than the lily of the valley

You're brighter than the morning star

You're purer than the snow

Fresher than the breeze

Lovelier by far than all of these

(sung by Irene Drauna)



What a lovely song of adoration. The beauty of our God is way beyond description. Our human language is limited and words cannot describe the magnitude and splendor of His beauty.

To help us understand His beauty, we compare Him to the finest things around us but we know that He is way, way beyond that!! We look at the diversity and creativity of things around us and it speaks volume about the One who created them.

WOW! What would I say if I saw Him in ALL His beauty? I know I would be lost for words! I would be in awe! Creation gives us a glimpse of this beauty!
