For Joy

Psalm 96 says Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; Let the sea roar, and all it contains; Let the field exult, and all that is in it. Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy.
Have you seen the heavens be glad?  I think when the sun sets and its rays shine from behind the clouds, that’s a picture of true gladness!
Have you heard the sea roar?  When the waves come crashing in against the shore, there’s nothing like it – it’s a big clap of applause for the Creator!
Have you seen fields of flowers in all of their glory?  The beauty is breathtaking when we stop to capture the glory on camera.
Have you heard the leaves of the trees blowing in the early fall season and observed their changing colors?  What joy they exude!
Wow, if the earth and all of its creation can rejoice in God, how much more can we who are made in his image rejoice in our God?
