In today's verse 15, we're going to explore the act of seeking God through His creation.

God wants to use the world around us to declare his glory, goodness, and love for us.

May we take the time to open our eyes and hearts,

to slow down for a minute,

and behold the beauty of our God in all that he has made.

Welcome to the First 15 podcast.

Thank you. podcast. Our scripture for today comes from Nehemiah chapter 9, 6 scripture says you are the lord you alone you have made heaven

the heaven of heavens with all their host the earth and all that is on it the seas and all that is in them, the seas, and all that is in them,

and you preserve all of them,

and the host of heaven worships you.

Every part of creation, from the smallest of insects to the mountains in all their grandeur

proclaims the unspoken glory of God.

Every living creature, rock, grain of sand, and mountain stream

was created for a specific purpose.

In the lilies of the field and the birds of the air, we discover God's faithfulness

and provision. With every sunrise, we are reminded of Jesus' imminent return. And with every gust of

wind, we are beckoned to live our lives as people of the Spirit.

Job 12, verse 7 through 10 says,

But ask the beasts, and they will teach you.

The birds of the heavens, and they will tell you.

Or the bushes of the earth, and they will teach you, and the fish of the sea will

declare to you. Who among all these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this?
