Blake Robert Templeton reflects on God's goodness after a hard day in West Texas, pointing to birds and sky as evidence of creation's glory. He cites Psalm 19:1 and other passages to argue that nature declares God's purpose, urging listeners to let creation reshape their mindset before walking through the door tonight.
Hey, so I got home from work and I am reminded of how good God is. I mean, it's not normally very calm here where I live in West Texas, and man, it's just beautiful. The birds are chirping. I don't know if you can hear them or not, but I want to declare the word with you on this. Like, Psalms 19:1 says, the heavens declare the glory of God, the skies proclaim the works of his hands. Listen, if you're having like a stressful day, go to the word. Ecclesiastes 3:1, he says, he has made everything beautiful in its time. You don't even have to understand that. It's just good, and it will always get better for you. Psalm 96:11-12, let the heavens rejoice Let the earth be glad, let the sea resound and all that is in it. Let the fields be jubilee and everything in them. I mean, this is so good. Just soak in this for a minute. No matter how hard your day's been, let this change the way you enter your house. Isaiah 6:1, the whole earth is full of his glory. Psalm 8:3-4, when I consider the heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars which you have set in place. Like, let that change the way you think. Let that change the way you process. You're not a failure when you enter your house because you didn't get enough done, or things didn't go as planned, or you're not ready to finish work but you're burning the candle at both ends and you just got to go back home and eat and, and take care of things and love on the family. Let the glory of God be known. Today is the best day ever, and tomorrow will be even better. God bless you.
