“The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge.”
Psalm 19:1-2
If you drive far enough away from city lights and traffic to spend a night under the stars, you’ll bear witness to what David described in Psalm 19 when he himself was in the wilderness. How amazing that God built into the universe elements that serve one purpose: to bring Him glory. “We live in a world that’s brimming over with the presence of God. All of creation is preaching a sermon all the time” (Andrew Peterson, 2020). The Milky Way, the Grand Canyon, a field of sunflowers, a hummingbird… these all speak loudly of God’s greatness by simply existing and doing what they were made to do.
The goal of your life is the same. You don’t need to search endlessly for your “calling” or purpose. Whatever your occupation, age, or abilities, you can bring Him glory as you seek to know Him and make Him known.
Whether you are working in an office, studying in a library, or cleaning up after messy toddlers, your life can reflect the goodness and creativity of God. Each day you worship Him in your actions and attitudes.
