Lift up your eyes on high
            and see:
   who created these?
He who brings out
their host by number,
calling them all by name,
by the greatness of His might;
and because
He is strong in power
      not one is missing.

             Isaiah 40. 26

(Lest we forget
          in the darkness,
God gave us the stars,
    every night,
    right on time.
Not one is missing,
every star is named,
to remind us that
    He cares even more
        about us.
And that is just the stars.
Why else do we all
       stand in awe?
The splendor of nature
   is not an accident,
but a call to worship Him.)

O LORD,
May we not explain You away
in the wonders we see,
but go forth in worship
     and stand in awe
     of Your Creation,
knowing it didn't just happen,
but You intricately designed
what takes our breath away.
And You love us
           even more.
Help us to be bold today
   in pointing others to You.
