Color / Beauty

Who out there has a lust for life? Can't wait each day to come upon beauty?

Wilderness and desert will sing joyously, the badlands will celebrate and flower— Like the crocus in spring, bursting into blossom, a symphony of song and color. Mountain glories of Lebanon—a gift. Awesome Carmel, stunning Sharon—gifts. God's resplendent glory, fully on display. God awesome, God majestic.

Walk into the fields and look at the wildflowers. They don't fuss with their appearance—but have you ever seen color and design quite like it? The ten best-dressed men and women in the country look shabby alongside them. If God gives such attention to the wildflowers, most of them never even seen, don't you think he'll attend to you, take pride in you, do his best for you?

The grass dries up. The flower loses its color. But the Word of our God stands forever.

A terrible beauty, O God, streams from your sanctuary. It's Israel's strong God! He gives power and might to his people! O you, his people—bless God!

Psalm 34:12 Isaiah 35:1 Luke 12:25 Isaiah 40:8 Psalm 68:35

To sing God’s praise, keep your heart in tune with Him.
