Behold the Beauty of the Earth

Behold the Beauty of the Earth

February 19, 2019

God has set before us on this earth creation. What a gift He has bestowed upon us so graciously, so lovingly, so magnanimously. With this in mind, it is always good to be thankful and appreciate those things we tend to take for granted. With the five senses we can take in so much and we do this all the time, we hardly think about it. But, as we are obedient to the Father, who knows us better than we do ourselves and knows what is best we can be in tune with Him and Nature. We can then "Be Still and Know that He is God." It is by creation we can see God's great Handiwork and appreciate the Creator of this creation. He takes care of the birds, they do not labor or spin for clothing or food, but He knows our needs and how much more He cares for us. Besides spiritual blessings, He gives us so abundantly gifts from nature to reflect His goodness. The Flora and Fauna He has given us for beauty and the garden to grow our food and supply our needs. The mountains, sky and firmament shout of his creative prowess and love for beauty. The air to breath, and our bodies to move and use for His glory. He cares for the suffering, weak, and downtrodden. If we can focus on the good, and the lovely and good report, we can then help lift up some poor soul along life's way. We are called to lift up a standard and use these gifts for others and not just hoard them to ourselves. This is the heartbeat of Laura Rhodes Naturals.
