Rest That Sees (Psalm 19:1-6) Dave Ainsworth

Summary

Once we clear our schedules and clear our minds, what do we do in order to rest? Psalm 19 teaches us that our rest must include both God's creation and God's Word. This week, Pastor Dave focuses on our need for creation. How does time star-gazing contribute to our rest?

Text

The heavens declare the glory of God,
        and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. 
    Day to day pours out speech,
        and night to night reveals knowledge. 
    There is no speech, nor are there words,
        whose voice is not heard. 
    Their voice goes out through all the earth,
        and their words to the end of the world.
     In them he has set a tent for the sun, 
    which comes out like a bridegroom leaving his chamber,
        and, like a strong man, runs its course with joy. 
    Its rising is from the end of the heavens,
        and its circuit to the end of them,
        and there is nothing hidden from its heat.  (Psalms 19:1–6)
