Nature is one of God’s beautiful creations.
With nature, God is able to teach us, speak to us, and provide for us.
For this reason, in scripture we see that humans need to protect all He has created.
In this post, I share a series of photos that display God’s
creativity, beauty, & glory here in Iceland.
Follow along friends.
“Listen to this Job; stop and consider God’s wonders.
Do you know how God controls the clouds and makes his lightning flash?
Do you know how the clouds hang poised,
those wonders of him who has perfect knowledge?”
Job 37:14-16
“In his hand are the depths of the earth;
the heights of the mountains are his also.
The sea is his, for he made it, and his hands formed the dry land.”
Psalm 95:4-5
“How many are your works, LORD!
In wisdom you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures.
There is the sea, vast and spacious, teeming with creatures beyond number— living things both large and small.”
Psalm 104:24-25
I hope you guys enjoyed this four part series on God’s creation in Iceland.
This is certainly the most beautiful country I’ve ever been to …
but something in me longs for more.
I suppose C.S. Lewis sums it up best with,
“If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy,
the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world.”
Have you ever been to Iceland?
Are you planning a trip there?
Cheers,
Hey — I wrote a book about all of this.
Living Open-Handed is the devotional I wrote during a season when I really needed to hear these words myself. If you're in a place where you need to be encouraged by scripture and softened by grace, it might be for you too.
