Under the Sea

"How many are your works, O Lord! In wisdom you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures. There is the sea vast and spacious, teeming with creatures beyond number--living things both large and small. There the ships go to and fro, and the leviathan you formed to frolic there." Psalm 104:24-26


When I read this verse today, I was very excited to share it with my little guy.  When I asked him what creatures God made to live in the sea, he knew the answer was fish! He was given a season pass to our new Sea Life Park for his birthday.  And he loves it!

It's so incredible to see a child understand the awesomeness of creation.  Sometimes the older we get, we forget that God's works are wonderful, made in wisdom, and are a display of greatness for all of us to see.  We think that aquariums and zoos are for children.  But God's creation is for all of us to enjoy.  Like the Psalmist, we should revel in Creation and praise God for His greatness.  Maybe it's time we all took a trip to the aquarium.
