Psalms 104:1-6
Bless the LORD, O my soul! O LORD my God, You are very great! You are clothed with splendor and majesty, covering Yourself with light as with a garment, stretching out the heavens like a tent. He lays the beams of his chambers on the waters; He makes the clouds His chariot; He rides on the wings of the wind; He makes his messengers winds, His ministers a flaming fire. He set the earth on its foundations, so that it should never be moved. You covered it with the deep as with a garment; the waters stood above the mountains.


Bless You, my LORD, praise You as You reveal Yourself in the majesty of Your creation. The light, now burning off the early morning fogs, exposing the mighty arch of the heavens overhead, the promise of the day to come.

Help me to see, Lord, a cloud as a reminder of the way You move quietly over all the earth, going every which way on the wings of the wind. Let the gentle breezes and the fierce gales remind me of the power of Your word, both spoken softly and then at times, with power and might.

Lord, the constancy of the earth in its path, the regularity of all of nature tells me of the utter dependability of Your laws. As the earth continues on its course, so do Your laws serve to guide my life in Your kingdom without fail or lapse.
