Psalm 147:7-8

Psalm 95:3-4

Standing in Awe of Him

Does creation make you stand in awe of the awesome God who created everything? Surely such beauty could only have come with a loving God's creativity. I especially love how this verse reflects the joy and beauty of the sunrise and sunset by saying they shout for joy! What a beautiful way to show the excitement of such a wonderful creation. As I worked on this photo, I also began to think about my responsibility to praise God. If the dawn and the sunset are shouting for joy and praising their Creator, how much more should I, as His child, praise Him! How can I not praise Him? When I consider the beauty of creation, the beauty of His redemptive work, the beauty of what He is making me, and the beauty of my God, I cannot help but praise Him!

Isaiah 40:8

The Word of our God stands forever! It is not changed through time or shaken by the centuries. It does not need to adapt to modern society. It is perfect for all people, in every generation, in every area of the world. It will always be sure. It has been preserved from the beginning, and it will be preserved to the end. So many things in our lives come and go. God and His Word will always be. He will never leave us or forsake us.

Isaiah 40:8

Ok, so I couldn't decide which picture to put this verse on, so this is the second picture with this verse. If you ever want a different translation or are interested in having a verse of your choice on a photo, just send me an email and we'll work it out.

Psalm 23:2-3

What a comfort to know that we have a Shepherd leading us through life. With Him guiding us, we will never be in need. He makes our burdens lighter, and our paths easier to walk. Just as sheep need a Shepherd to guide them, we as Christians must follow the voice of our Shepherd. 

Psalm 57:10

Since the beginning, people have searched for truth. They have searched for it everywhere, but in vain. Only in our Lord can we find the source of truth. Our God not only is the definition of truth, but He shows lovingkindness to sinful people. What a vast difference between what God gives us and what we deserve!

Isaiah 26:4

What an amazing promise and great comfort this is! He is our everlasting Rock. When the storms of life seem to toss us in every direction, He will be our solid ground! We can always trust in the faithfulness of our God.

Proverbs 4:18

This verse seems to go along with the theme of my blog. As we reflect the glory of our God, our lives will grow brighter and brighter. Through time spent in prayer and in the Bible, we will begin to show those around us just a part of the awesomeness of God. What a serious thought and great challenge this is--that our lives must be reflections of God's glory. As Christians, our lives will one day be at full brightness. We will shine like the gleaming sun at full day! This should be our goal--to shine brighter and brighter for the Lord.

Isaiah 55:8-9

Isn't this such a good thing! It is a great comfort to know that God has an infinitely better plan for our lives than we can even comprehend. His ways are not our ways, and though we sometimes struggle for our own way, God always has a better plan for our lives. 

Psalm 8:9

Every time I see a sunrise, a rainbow, a flower, a dewdrop, a leaf, a child, I see the wonder and beauty of God's creation. What amazing details and perfect beauty are in even the simplest of creation. Surely our God is majestic! All of the earth declares the wonder of His name!
