Look to the mountains from a terrace on a hillside; behold the grand landscape set before us. Look to the sea and the beautiful waters that lap upon the shore. The billions of stars in the night sky declare God’s glory, as does all creation.
Shout for joy to God, all the earth;
sing the glory of his name;
give to him glorious praise!
Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds!”(Psalms 66:1-3)
God’s awesome deeds manifest everywhere. We can see His handwork in how He had shaped the mountains into glorious fixtures, unmovable except by His Word. We can see how His divine spirit had hovered over the seas, molding its depths for us to marvel. We can see His works unfold every night when we look to the starry sky in awesome wonder. Who are we that God should be so mindful of us?
The whole creation shouts for joy for God’s marvelous works. He set the earth on its axis. He made the sway in the ocean currents. He purposed the drifting clouds in the sky for our imagination. He created the trees as protectors of our souls. He poured His heart into brooks, streams and rivers so that we could look upon those waters and never forget the power of His spirit.
In all things, God’s power is great, mighty and good. Nothing comes close to His wonderful majesty. Always remember how awesome God’s deeds are.

His deeds are awesome indeed and worthy of all our praise.
Hard to imagine a life without the Great God.
I agree
“He created the trees as protectors of our souls.”
Sorry, Jack, what does it mean?
Hello Carlos, when writing this, I was looking at Deuteronomy 20:19, where it says, “When you besiege a city for a long time, making war against it in order to take it, you shall not destroy its trees by wielding an axe against them. You may eat from them, but you shall not cut them down. Are the trees in the field human, that they should be besieged by you?”
That was the English Standard Version. I feel, though, the King James Version is more accurate in this case, where it cites, “When thou shalt besiege a city a long time, in making war against it to take it, thou shalt not destroy the trees thereof by forcing an axe against them: for thou mayest eat of them, and thou shalt not cut them down (for the tree of the field is man’s life) to employ them in the siege.”
In other words, God gave us the trees to prolong our lives. In His infinite wisdom, He concluded that we should respect our environment so that we could live longer. This is clear by the science that acknowledges trees breathe in carbon dioxide and expel oxygen, which is what we breathe. Should we not have trees, we would lack the oxygen to breathe; therefore, trees are our protectors, as God had designed from the beginning.
Thankful, Jack. You also know:
