It's a brilliant film, but imagine it, a world where all creation (the trees, the rocks, the creatures of the deep, the sun, moon, bright shining stars, the weather, the Wolf and the lamb, all in unison singing one song).
Crazy right?
Well not really!
God says all of heaven and earth is to praise Him.
In today's psalm it describes all of creation, not just the living creations and mankind, but the weather, the planets all that came from His hands everything we see is to praise Him.
He is the giver and the sustainer of life, by His hands all things were made to bring Him glory.
We have understood through meditating on these words that our very purpose is to do just this, bring glory to Him through fulfilling what He created us for, to bring Him great pleasure through a life of abandonment to Him. This is our act of worship.
As we awake on a beautiful morning like these we have been having this past week, we can hear creations songs, whether the bird song of the morning (or the seagull call in our case), the silent waves tossing, the air breathing between the branches of the trees, all of creation is singing it's song.
All of creation is singing aloud longing for His return, this is my longing too. All of creation one day will be very much like this illustration we see in the famous 'Roger Rabbit' Movie (maybe less cheesy) but it describes that creation will be united in one song, "the wolf will romp with the lamb" is one of many illustrations picture in this chapter, (Isaiah 11).
But until that day, we continue in our Love song to Him, we continue to become further abandoned to Him, we long to go deeper into Him, all through our life of worship, but the question is why?
Verses 13-14 sum it perfectly:
Let them praise the name of God—
it's the only Name worth praising.
His radiance exceeds anything in earth and sky;
he's built a monument—his very own people!
Simply it's our purpose, and in coming into that purpose we find complete wholeness, complete satisfaction, a greater longing for more, hope, sustainment.
Lord, I thank you that you chose me, you created and moulded me, You called me, I long to know You more. Lord as i abandon myself to You in a life of Worship would You let me meet with heaven and all creations song, and see You glorified.
