There is a song I love by Kirk Dearman called "All Creation Worships You." As I sit on the deck in Vernonia facing an entire hillside of trees of various ilk, I watch them sway, each at their own speed and rhythm. Their leaves and branches move like a chorus in 10-part harmony. Periodically one level stops while another continues to dance and wave. The treble trees flutter quickly, while the bass evergreens on the top of the ridge move slowly to and fro from side to side and up and down.
I wonder sometimes if there is an angel conducting them, drawing out the occasional solo before the chorus joins in. The fading light splays itself across the upper layers of the ridge, in contrast to the darkening cypress surrounding the cabin like reassuring, stalwart sentries.
I am reminded of the Narnian trees which Lucy encounters and which Aslan calls forth in time of need. Everything ADONAI brought into being declares His majesty and His glory. He created it all with us in mind, wanting us to take delight in it. When was the last time we stopped to do so?
Psalm 19:1
