“The heavens are telling the glory of
God; and the firmament proclaims his handiwork. Day to day pours
forth speech, and night to night declares knowledge. There is no
speech, nor are there words;
their voice is not heard; yet their voices goes
out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world.”
(Psalm
19:1-4)
Twentieth-century American humorist Will
Rogers once quipped, “Never miss a chance
to shut up!” We might do well to
heed his advice from time to time. Seems
we are often so impressed with what we have to add to the conversation that we
spend more time talking and less time
listening.
The Psalmist reminds us that praise isn’t
dependent on words. “Look up,” he seems to be saying. “Take in the wonder of
God’s glory.” Words are superfluous…shhhhhhh!
Prayer:
