Awesome Wonder

 

"So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living thing with which the waters teemed and that moved about it..." (Genesis 1:21)

To kiss the summer goodbye, my Phillip and I took a spur of the moment trip to St. George Island. This morning, we watched over 5 pods of dolphins with 3 to 8 or more dolphins in each pod rolling over the surface of the sea and leaping into the air!

Decades ago, Carl Boberg penned:

Oh Lord, my God

When I, in awesome wonder

Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made . . . 

Then sings my soul, my Savior God to Thee

How great Thou art, how great Thou art!

Centuries ago, the psalmist wrote:

O my soul, bless God!

God, my God, how great You are!

Dressed up in sunshine,

and all heaven stretched out for Your tent.

You built Your palace on the ocean depths,

made a chariot out of clouds and

took off on wind-wings . . .

What a wild and wonderful world, God!

You made it all, with Wisdom at Your side,

made earth overflow with Your

wonderful creations.

Oh, look — the deep, wide sea,

brimming with fish past counting!

(Psalm 104, the Message)
