Photographs of snowflakes are simply amazing. I've been amazed by them since I was a little boy and saw the first one in a World Book article.

Psalm 19: Quote:
1The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
2Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
3There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
4Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world.

I'm taking a class on Revelation and Inspiration this semester. One of the things that dawned on me as we were studying the subject of natural revelation is that the Scriptures teach us that God's creation is supposed to cause us to reflect upon God's Providential care. It's a book, as it were, for the redeemed man to study and consider how mindful God is of Him (Psalm 8:3).
I've realized that I need to repent to God for walking by His Creation all the time with my head down, too busy to notice the praise to His majesty that redounds around me. I'm trying to notice the skies more and the created things that I might be reminded that God upholds and sustains all things.
Isn't it to the glory of our Creator that God decreed that we would be over-awed by His majesty when we were eventually capable at looking at the intricacy of a snowflake!

| Amen..
I've noticed it's not just the beauty in God's creation like snow flakes..but also things like weeds in my yard and garden that draw my attention to God..as I look at them I reflect on God's grace and mercy to mankind when Adam sinned against Him in the garden.
God could have destroyed the earth at that time, but He didn't..instead He gave us weeds to remind us That HE is God and we need Him, even weeds show us of God's redemption and His love for His creation.
