A Life That Speaks Psalm 19:1 · Life For Toledo

• 0:00
  Thinking today of Psalm 19, verse 1. It says,
• 0:03
  The heavens tell of the glory of God, and their
• 0:06
  expanse declares the work of His hands. Right
• 0:10
  away when I look at this verse, I think about
• 0:12
  a beautiful night sky with tons of stars, and
• 0:14
  we think about how the stars declare the glory
• 0:16
  of God. Sometimes the storms that rage across
• 0:19
  the sky are high winds, like as I'm recording
• 0:22
  this today on the 13th of March. There are high
• 0:25
  winds today, and they tell of the glory of God.
• 0:27
  But what's interesting about the verse is a reminder
• 0:29
  that things can be communicated without words.
• 0:33
  The expanse of the heavens declares the work
• 0:37
  of his hands. You, too, can declare the work
• 0:40
  of God's hands. And declare it by the choices
• 0:43
  that you make on a daily basis. If anyone could
• 0:46
  observe your life from beginning to end, beginning
• 0:48
  of the day to the end of the day, beginning of
• 0:50
  the week to the end of the week, and so on, what
• 0:52
  would be the message that they would see? Let
• 0:55
  me encourage you to think, how can I convey the
• 0:59
  glory, declare the glory, tell of the glory of
• 1:03
  God? Now, you can do that with words as you share
• 1:04
  the gospel. You can do it with actions as you
• 1:06
  show love. My guess is every person has a distinct
• 1:10
  set of choices that they can make that will declare
• 1:13
  the glory of our God. And so should we. Let us
• 1:16
  do that today.
