“On the glorious splendor of your majesty, and on your wondrous works, I will meditate.” – Psalms 145:5 ESV (http://bible.com/59/psa.145.5.esv)
Devotional
Last May 2018, my husband and I went to Hunan province, China to see the Tianmen Cave and Zhangjiajie National Forest Park to see the “Avatar Mountains” as they call it. We climbed 999 steps to “Heaven’s Gate” – a natural hole in the mountain of a height of 431.4 ft. The “Avatar Mountains” are actually pillar-like formations not underlain by limestones and is not the product of chemical dissolution, which is characteristic of limestone karst. They are the result of many years of physical, rather than chemical, erosion. (Wikipedia). We cannot help by shed a tear looking at the majestic scenery, how God made all these things with all the details! Only He can do that! Throughout our 4-hour hike, we had so many #wowGod moments that we didn’t mind our aching knees and legs! I am just so happy and grateful that I get to see these places before my diagnosis and sciatica attack! Thank You, Lord!
What/Where was the last time you saw something that made you think of how great our God is through His creations? Journal and sketch/paint it.
Remember that this process is for you to meditate on His wondrous creations through any form of art that you enjoy. We are doing this to glorify Him, not for ours.
