A Prayer about Seeing God’s Beauty in Creation

The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. Psalm 19:1

Creator of Beauty,

On this Fall Monday, we take time to look around us,

 to listen to creation declaring your glory:

Cerulean sky writes messages of your delight in us (Psalm 19:1):

[Name a message of God’s delight that you hear in creation.]

Brilliant sun bounds across the sky, 

shouting of your Son’s salvation (Psalm 19:4-5):

[Name a way the sun reminds you of the Son’s love and forgiveness.]

Early morning dew glints on the soccer fields, 

hinting at the river of life to flow 

in your new heavens and new earth (Revelation 22:1):

[Name ways dew or rain or rivers or oceans remind you 

of the “river of the water of life” that fills your thirst.]

Acorns gently fall to the earth, 

revealing your commitment 

to transform us into “oaks of righteousness” (Isaiah 61:3):

[Name your gratitude at the Spirit’s transforming work in your life.]

Lord, indeed, we could go on and on, 

as your wondrous creation does.

Sharpen our senses today to the beauty of your earth 

and how it declares your glory throughout the day. 

Give us glad, grateful hearts as we take it all in.

In Jesus’ lovely name. Amen.

Read Psalm 19.
