Creation Sings The Father's
Song
“The heavens are telling of the glory of God; and the
expanse of heaven is declaring the work of His hands. Day after day pours forth speech, and night
after night reveals knowledge.
“There is no speech, nor are there spoken words from the
stars; their voice is not heard. Yet
their voice in quiet evidence has gone out through all the earth, their words
to the end of the world.” Psalm 19:1-3
“For God does not overlook sin and the wrath of God is
revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who in
their wickedness suppress and stifle the truth, because that which is known
about God is evident within them in their inner consciousness, for God made it
evident to them.
“For ever since the creation of the world His invisible
attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being
understood through His workmanship -- all His creation, the wonderful things
that He has made, so that they who fail to believe and trust in Him are without
excuse and without defense.” Romans 1:18-20
