Creation's Song

Unload the swim suits, boogie boards, and frog feet (aka water shoes) – leave the rest to Mr. Bill.  That’s all Mama and the boys needed to head for the surf soon after arrival!  A lesson learned many pinches ago, crabs buried in the ocean floor aren’t so friendly when stepped on.  Thus, the frog feet – good defense against "crabby" sea creatures!

Why are Christians so stingy with praise to God? Luke wrote, "I tell you that if these should keep silent, the stones would immediately cry out." (19:40)  St. Francis of Assisi loved nature and a story is told of him preaching to a flock of birds one day in Italy's Spoleto Valley.  His words to the birds, "praise your Creator and always love Him," should inspire us to do the same.  Psalm 148 says Creation makes a show and boasts of God's Greatness -- yes, I suppose even [otherwise] crabby "sea creatures." (v.7)  Francis later wrote ... "all creatures of our God and King, lift up your voice and with us sing."  Why? "His glory is above the earth and heaven." (v.13)  Join Creation’s Song -- praise the Lord!
