“Is the Bible relevant today?” This can sometimes be a question we ask ourselves when reading the Bible. So, we compiled Scripture meditations like this one to help see reasons why the Bible is relevant, and to help us connect with God.
All Creation Sings
There’s a change in the air. We can feel it, do you?
Maybe it’s just a shift in the weather or really taking the time to notice the world around us – either way, we are feeling HOPE today, and it seems like the world around us is as well. All creation sings praise, so let’s take the time to do so as well!
God is working in your life. All things will come together for his glory and for your good. Feel the weight of his love surrounding you today.
Think about the goodness that God has always shown as we meditate on this Psalm.
Psalm 66:4-6
4 “All the earth bows down to you;
they sing praise to you,
they sing the praises of your name.”
5 Come and see what God has done,
his awesome deeds for mankind!
6 He turned the sea into dry land,
they passed through the waters on foot—
come, let us rejoice in him.”
Observations from the Text
