Does the creation glorify God?
The idea has certainly been exploited by poets, but is it scriptural? I was talking with a man who said that to glorify God, one must have a will, and be able to NOT glorify God. In other words....only man can glorify and praise God completely.
I want to know....do not the lesser things He created, inanimate and dumb as they may be, know that He created them and give Him praise and glory for that?

No More Night
Words & music by Walt Harrah
The timeless theme,
Earth and Heaven will pass away.
It’s not a dream,
God will make all things new that day.
Gone is the curse from which I stumbled and fell.
Evil is banished to eternal hell.
No more night.
No more pain.
No more tears.
Never crying again.
And praises to the great "I AM."
We will live in the light of the risen Lamb.
See all around, now the nations bow down to sing.
The only sound is the praises to Christ, our King.
Slowly the names from the book are read.
I know the King, so there’s no need to dread.
No more night.
No more pain.
No more tears.
Never crying again.
And praises to the great "I AM."
We will live in the light of the risen Lamb.
See over there, there’s a mansion
That’s prepared for me,
Where I will live with my savior eternally.
No more night.
No more pain.
No more tears.
Never crying again.
And praises to the great "I AM."
We will live in the light of the risen Lamb.

Third Piercing
About noon today, my subconscious decided that I needed a third piercing. The force applied by my right hand doubled, and the knife which it held proceed to attack my left.
After a second of shock...I found that the 1/2 inch gash wouldn't bleed (even after I squeezed it)...so I band-aided it up, and hope it will heal. My mom says that a stitch or two would help it not become a very bad scar....but only time will tell.
Too bad the knife was too dull to cut through...imagine how well it would look decorated with a belly ring, or something!!

Now, More Than Ever
When I started my journey in fresh childlike trust
I believed that the Lord’s way was best.
would read in His Word how He mothered the bird
And grieved when it fell from its nest.
How I felt His delight when I chose to do right,
And I prayed I would not make Him sad.
We would meet on the way in the cool of the day,
What a pure sweet communion we had.
CHORUS:
Oh, but now more than ever I cherish the cross.
More than ever I sit at His feet.
All the miles of my journey have proved my Lord true,
And He is so precious to me.
The road I have traveled has sometimes been steep,
Through wild jagged places of life.
Sometimes I’ve stumbled and fallen so hard
That the stones cut my soul like a knife.
But the staff of my Shepherd would reach out for me
And lift me to cool pastures green.
With oil of the spirit anointing my wounds,
There I’d rest by the clear healing stream.
CHORUS
Is Love’s Old Sweet Story too good to be true?
Do you find all this hard to believe?
Has the cruel world we live in so battered your heart
That the hurt child inside you can’t grieve?
I can’t say I blame you.I’ve been where you are.
But all I can say is
It’s true!
You’re wanted,
You’re precious,
You’re the love of His heart,
And the old rugged cross was for you.
CHORUS
I love singing the chorus on this song. It is so powerful! I like how it reflects the correct relationship with Jesus Christ. How ever step is better, how every day is new and good.
