all of it bears His mark

Currently reading Brett McCracken’s The Wisdom Pyramid. Enjoying his chapter on nature.

“God graciously initiates a conversation with us, revealing himself to us when he didn’t have to. What a gift! He not only gives us a literal book we can read and preach; he gives us a book we can see, hear, smell, touch and taste — a book that runs through our hands like warm sand, rushes over us like a cold mountain waterfall, trickles down our mouth like juice from a peach. All of it bears his mark. Nature is one big, beautiful symphony that is always playing, if only we take out our earbuds long enough to listen.” (104-105)
