TODAY’S READING
Psalm 148:1-14
KEY VERSE: Sun and moon, praise God! All of you bright stars, praise God! – Psalm 148:3 (CEB)
Sunrise walks are an important spiritual and physical exercise for me. Sometimes I wake before dawn with the sense that the Creator has something to show me. And I’m never disappointed as I step out under fathomless stars and into the calm, pre-dawn air.
Often I give voice to the spontaneous and heartfelt prayer of thanksgiving that rises within me. I understand how the beauty and magnitude of God’s creation could elicit the psalmist’s cry: “Sun and moon, praise God! All of you bright stars, praise God!” When a guiding star or clear crescent moon adorns the night sky, I’m especially glad to have been invited to witness God’s handiwork.
In the stillness of these early-morning moments, I sense God’s presence. I become aware of the calm that surrounds me in this place on this planet at this hour, and I’m grateful to God for leading me to this moment. With my soul stilled, I give praise and ask for guidance in my Christian walk.
When my soul is still, I become receptive to God’s presence.
To seek stillness in my soul.
