My Devotional JournalToday’s Our Daily Bread  Author, Kirsten Holmberg -  AT THIS LINK -  Writes about observing her mother-in-law, whom she observed making noises to her dogs which the ODB author felt like she knew when the dogs were happy or sad.  And this behavior is confirmed by scientific investigation revealing that many animal types have vocal signals which indicate the animals are expressing joy or other emotions.  


In other words, just by observing God’s creation, we see His glory and how our Lord created all things we see to declare God’s presence.  And I believe, as I pray you do as well, that as we look around us in creation we see God’s glory being witnessed every day.   Look around you, my friend, and see our God’s glory on display today.  Many of us witnessed this on display this past week in the total eclipse of the sun as was seen all around the globe.  But you can see and hear the same thing as the birds sing of God’s glory (see photo).                                   

My THANKFULNESS: ... Oh, Abba Father, thank You, King Jesus, … for letting me see Your glory today in Your creation.  

>My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... . I pray. again today, that all reading here will join me today, … to let us see Your glory, Lord, thru the signs and sounds of Your creation.       … Amen
