The Sovereign LORD will show his justice to the nations of the world. Everyone will praise him! His righteousness will be like a garden in early spring, with plants springing up everywhere. Isaiah 61:11 NLT

Where I live spring is coming fast. The weather is a little warmer, the trees are budding out, the daffodils have bloomed, the grass is getting greener, and we have started planting in our garden. All signs that spring is here! Our God created everything we see on earth.

God’s amazing creation!

God created the whole entire amazing natural world. Did you know…?

There are millions of different animals?

About 18,000 different birds?

About 1,000,000 different sea creatures? And scientists don’t even know them all!

About 100,000 different bugs?

About 400,000 different flowering plants?

About 60,000 different trees?

About 16,000 different mushrooms?

About 14,000 different amphibians and reptiles?

The Bible verse above tells us that just like the earth brings forth buds and plants, so the Lord will cause praise to spring forth. As we enjoy God’s wonderful and beautiful creation, our praises for our God and his handiwork spring forth.

Thank You, God, for all the signs of spring, the increasing light and warmth of the sun, the flowers that bloom, the birds that sing, the plants that grow and seed, the trees that bud into leaf, and thank You that I can go outside and explore Your world and praise You for it. God, You are good all the time!

This week spend some time outside. How many of God’s creatures and plants can you count? Pick something that you love about God’s creation and draw a picture as your praise to God. Share your picture with your parents, your friends and your family and share with them how wonderful our God is. Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you your heart’s desire.” Psalms 37:4

Blessings and joy as you delight in God and His amazing creations this week and “spring forth” with your own praise for Him!
